Monday Motivation And Comment

Here’s this weeks motivational message from my friend Arnfried at Be Motivated Today.

From The Field: Tax Sales In New Jersey

Posted on June 22, 2012 by Joanne

I went to a tax lien sale in New Jersey this week and was able to get 2 small tax liens. The tax sales in New Jersey are not like the tax sales in the rest of the country. There are no county tax sales. Everything is done on the municipal level. Each municipality has their own tax sale. This is both good and bad for the investor. Good, because there are over 500 municipalities in NJ and each of them has a tax sale once a year. So you can find a tax sale somewhere in the the state almost any time of the year. Bad, because you have to attend a few tax sales in order to get your money invested. Continue reading →
