What is a Tax Lien?
A property tax lien is a lien against real estate, which is created as an operation of law or by statute to ensure collection of property tax. A real property tax lien is a first position lien on real property. Generally speaking, the property tax lien is superior to all other liens and encumbrances on the property, except liens or encumbrances held by the state and/or liens held by the U.S. Government.

How long have Tax Liens been in effect?
This question, which we get a lot of, is very simple to answer: Tax Liens have been available before the United States was even a country. We’ll let you do the math there.

The information you will gain from our product will most likely be new to you, as it is to most of the people who join our program. Although Tax Lien Certificates are clearly the best and safest investment vehicle in America today, there is no formal education about the process. Realtors are not taught about them throughout there training, stock brokers do not offer them, and you don’t read about them in your daily paper. Traditional investors, like the banks and insurance companies have no incentive to “let you in” on their investment strategies. In general, we “give” our hard earned money to the banks for 3%, 4%, or 5% returns while they use it to invest in Tax Liens in bulk, all the while earning 16% to 50% interest.

How much money is needed to begin investing?
This is another very common question. This is one of the better aspects of Tax Lien investments, they come in everyone’s price range, so there is no excuse not to start investing. On the low end, we have seen individual Tax Liens for as low as $12.00. On the high side, there are Tax Liens out there for up to $1,000,000. Tax Deeds, on the other hand, tend to be a more expensive with more competition. This is due, in general, to Tax Deeds representing property ownership opposed to a lien upon property taxes.

When I invest in a Tax Lien and the property owner pays their taxes, what happens?
When the property owner pays the county the taxes, the county will then send a check to the Tax Lien holder that will include principle plus interest and/or penalties due. Remember, the property owner has a specific period (redemption period, usually 1-3 years) to complete payment to the county.

When I invest in a Tax Lien and the property owner doesn’t pay within the redemption period, what happens?
If the property owner does not pay the back taxes to the county, the holder of the Tax Lien then has the right to foreclose on the property. This does not mean that you must initiate foreclosure as you may choose to leave your original investment in to keep gaining interest.
