Profit by Investing in Real Estate Tax Liens: Earn Safe, Secured, and Fixed Returns Every Time
Product Description
Profit by Investing in Real Estate Tax Liens introduces an investment alternative that is safe, secured by real estate, administered by the government, involves no brokers, is enforced by state law, and gives fixed returns.
Selling tax liens or tax deeds (depending on the state) are the two ways that counties across the country bring delinquent property taxes up-to-date. This investment is one of the least publicized and safest ways of investing in real estate, designed to give the investor either a fixed return, as in the case of investing in tax liens, or a property for 10 to 50 cents on the dollar, as in the case of a tax deed sale. In most situations, the property is ultimately transferred free of any liens, such as mortgages.
Profit by Investing in Real Estate Tax Liens also debunks the common myth that tax delinquent properties are run-down and shows that liens exist on every type of property. Author Larry Loftis, an attorney and active investor, has purchased liens on properties owned by Julius “Dr. J” Erving, Hector “Macho” Camacho (world champion boxer), Chase Manhattan Bank, LaSalle National Bank, and even a building whose major tenant was the local sheriff’s department!
In this authoritative guide, Loftis helps investors avoid the pitfalls while answering all the key questions they need to consider:
• What’s the difference between investing in tax liens and tax deeds?
• How does an investor go about bidding at tax sales? What is the process?
• What are the different requirements in each state?
• Where are the greatest risks in this kind of real estate investing?
For investors eager to get started, Loftis’s action plan provides details on the next steps to take, while real-life examples in every chapter bring the concepts down to earth.

This has excellent info on tax liens. I bought this book and Complete Guide to Real Estate Tax Liens and Foreclosure Deeds: Learn in 7 Days, both combined the perfect tax auction reference.

I thoroughly enjoyed this interesting book on tax liens. I learned a lot on the subject from the book and attended a tax lien sale shortly after reading the book. The book was well organized and easy to understand the process of buying tax liens. I have just bought another book on tax liens in order to compare the advice given by Loftis in this book to the advice given in the newly acquired book.

In general an excellent book, but has some errors. Being from FL he should know that one can purchase liens OTC (at least some county websites mention it, most notably Hillsborough–Tampa area and Brevard–Canaveral area), and he doesn’t mention FL’s other weird quirk (homestead liens <$100 cannot be purchased). Also has error on AR redemption period (2 years) and TX (period for non-ag and non-homestead is 180 days not 6 months).

This book is a good jumping off point to grasp the process of tax lien sales. The author explains how to maneuver through them and provides some good tips on what to look for and what to stay away from.
