Where the deals are
Most Duval County activity concentrates around Jacksonville, Jacksonville Beach and Baldwin. Foreclosure complaints are filed in the 4th Judicial Circuit, and the clerk in Jacksonville records the lis pendens — usually the same day, which is what makes the filing the earliest public signal on the property.
What we collect here
Duval ships lis pendens, probate and tax-delinquent filings. Tax-delinquent lists run on Florida's annual certificate cycle under Fla. Stat. Ch. 197, so that lane refreshes once a year rather than daily — it is not stale when it does not move.
By recent filing volume, Duval ranks 5th of the 26 Florida counties we cover.
County figures measured from our own collection of Duval clerk records on 2026-10-07. The same records are public and free at the clerk's official records search — if ours ever disagree, the clerk is right.

What is a lis pendens?
A lis pendens (“suit pending”) is a public notice filed in county records when a lawsuit is pending against a property. In Florida, it's the earliest public signal of distress — typically filed at the start of a foreclosure case, divorce partition action, or HOA lien suit. See the full lis pendens explainer.
For real-estate wholesalers, lis pendens filings in Duval County are the top of the acquisition funnel.

Where Duval County lis pendens filings are recorded
A lis pendens on Duval County property starts as part of a lawsuit — typically a mortgage foreclosure complaint — filed in the 4th Judicial Circuit. Under Florida law, the notice itself only takes effect once it's recorded with the clerk of the circuit court in the county where the property sits (Fla. Stat. § 48.23). In Duval that means the Official Records kept by the Duval County Clerk of the Circuit Court, the county's official recorder, whose public Official Records search is where anyone can look up a specific filing or property.
Searching Duval County records yourself
The search at or.duvalclerk.com finds an Official Records filing by name, instrument number, document type, record date, consideration, book and page, or case number. A case number search is the fastest route from a lis pendens to the foreclosure case behind it.
Where Duval holds foreclosure sales
When a case reaches a judicial sale, the auction runs online at duval.realforeclose.com, which the Clerk links from duvalclerk.com. The pages we read do not give sale days or times, so check the calendar on that site.
Why daily freshness matters
National list vendors typically republish county filings on a multi-day delay. By the time you call, the homeowner may have already heard from other wholesalers and a hard-money lender.
