How to get started in Tax Liens?
The best way to get started in tax liens is to start researching in the area that you live in now. Go to your local county tax collectors site or court house research the process for your county. It’s easier to start local because you can easily do research on the property of interest because you are familiar with your area.
Additionally you can drive by the property and inspect the outside (usually you are not able to go inside these properties because they may be abandoned or occupied) and check out it's condition.
After you understand the process more you can start to branch out to other states. To get started I’d suggest you check out the Recommended Readings section.
What are Tax Deeds?
Tax Deeds are different then tax lien certificates in that you are bidding for ownership of the property as opposed to tax lien certificates where you are competing for the interest on the certificate when it is redeemed and a chance to foreclose on the property.
How do Tax Lien Certificates Work?
Tax lien certificates are issued to help pay for delinquent property taxes. The government uses this money to for police, schools, and other government departments and activities. When you purchase tax lien certificates you benefit from interest being charged on the lien once it is paid back.
Can I really buy properties for pennies on the dollar?
Yes. If you purchase a Tax Deed or Tax Lien Certificate and it is not paid by the redemption period you can foreclose on the property or obtain ownership.
