2nd code listing

The URL given doesn't exist any more. The Philadelphia Sheriff's office provides a listing of dates of foreclosure auctions at <http://www.officeofphiladelphiasheriff.com/home-buyers/foreclosure-listings>. Following one of the links for an auction date brings you to another page where you can click on a download link with a CSV for a specific date. For example, <http://www.officeofphiladelphiasheriff.com/images/documents/mortgage3-5-13.csv>. While I plan on working through the book's example using the version the author has posted at Github, some of it may not be necessary.

Note from the Author or Editor:
You can also obtain archived foreclosure listings from the Internet Archive:
