Tax Lien Investing Basics: What Are Penalties For Tax Liens?

tax lien investingRecently I received this question about tax lien investing. “I understand getting interest on your liens.  I do not understand penalties.  Does this mean that if you bought a lien, to get the deed to the property you would have to pay an additional penalty?”   

The short answer to this question is no, if you purchase a lien in a state that has a penalty, you do not have to pay an additional penalty to get the deed to the property. A penalty is something that the property owner has to pay in order to redeem the lien or deed.

6 Things You Need To Know

Before I answer this question more thoroughly, I’d like to review the 6 things that you need to know before you invest in tax liens or redeemable tax deeds.

Each of these items listed can make a huge difference in your profit when it comes to investing in tax liens or redeemable tax deeds. They also make tax lien and redeemable tax deed investing very different in each state. Here are the 6 things you need to know before investing in any state: Continue reading

Is Zero Interest Credit Too Good To Be True?

Enjoy this guest article about zero interest credit by business funding expert Ari Page…zero percent interest

The old adage is that if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Browsing through your mail, you’ve likely come across no interest credit solicitations from various institutions and wondered how they can do that. In the case of zero interest credit, the adage actually doesn’t apply.
