Tax Lien Investing Book Review

By Joanne Musa, The Tax Lien Lady

Recently one of my clients asked me what I thought about a book on tax lien investing. The book that he asked me about is one that I do recommend on my web site. The name of the book isProfit by Investing in Tax Liens, by Larry Loftis. The problem with books about investing in tax liens and tax deeds is that every state is very different and there is no book in print that I’m aware of that does justice to every state in the U.S. My goal in this article is to give you a short review of some of the books that I’m familiar with and point out the pros and cons of each one.

Tax Lien Investing: Reasons NOT to Buy a Tax Lien

By Joanne Musa, The Tax Lien Lady

Recently someone contacted me with a very “valuable?”lien that they had for sale. They didn’t have the money to foreclose on the lien and wanted either to sell it or partner with someone on foreclosing it. (Have someone else hire a lawyer to foreclose on the lien and share in the profits). When I checked into the property, I found out that it was a vacant piece of land with little value, and the lien holder had already invested more than $16,000.00 into this lien. They had paid subsequent taxes over a few years and when they stopped paying the taxes the lien was struck off to the municipality.

Podcast Episode #22: No Negotiating Skills Needed

Posted on February 9, 2009 by Joanne

I finally figured out why I’ve been successful at investing in tax lien certificates, but have not been very successful at other types of real estate investing. All this time I thought it was just because there’s less money needed for tax lien investing than there is for most other types of real estate investing.

Real Estate Investing for Passive Income

Posted on July 14, 2008 by Joanne

Tax lien investing is a great way to invest for your future at a higher rate of interest than you can get in most safe investments. The problem with tax lien investing if your looking for a consistent income is that you don’t know when you’re going to get paid. You don’t get paid on a tax lien until the property owner decides to redeem the lien, or, if they don’t redeem the lien, when you foreclose. And foreclosure could be a long drawn out process.

If you’ve been listening to my teleseminars this past year, you know that I’ve also been looking for ways to invest in real estate for consistent returns and passive income. I’ve been looking into foreclosures, pre-foreclosures, and short sales as ways to acquire properties in order to rent them out for passive income. The problem with these strategies is that they require a lot of cash. But what if you could purchase homes from people who needed to sell their property before the bank foreclosed on them and before everybody else was knocking on their door? And what if you could purchase their home without having to come with a lot of money. What if you could help them increase their credit score by purchasing their home “subject to” their current mortgage? And what if you could do all of this with little to no closing costs?

A couple of weeks ago my husband and I attended a comprehensive 2 day training to learn how to buy and sell and hold real estate for maximum profits. We learned about strategies that make it possible to find homes in pre-foreclosure before everyone else knows about them, and purchase these homes subject to the current mortgage, with little money, if any, needed for a down payment. Listen to this podcast to find out more…
