Tax Lien Certificate & Tax Deed Investing Course

Tax Lien Certificate Deed Course

Attorney’s Secrets to Investing in Tax Liens Course

A Step-by-Step Tax Lien Investing Study Course

Our Tax Lien Certificate & Deed Study Course will teach you how to safely invest in tax lien certificates. Purchasing tax liens from county and municipal governments can provide you with extremely high rates of return ranging from 12%, 15%, 24% or even 1000% or more per year. Unlike a stock market purchase, when you purchase a tax lien certificate you don’t need to worry about sudden changes in the market. Rather you become a lien holder with powerful legal rights. You will either earn a fixed and stated return on each dollar invested or you can foreclose and take title to the real estate backing the certificate. No matter how well the stock market is doing, careful investment in tax lien certificates will allow you to consistently out- perform the stock market.

This product is designed to take you through the investment process from start to finish. There is a solid emphasis on reducing and managing risk. The vast majority of tax lien certificate materials (which I have surveyed) seem to provide a general ‘feel good’ overview and gloss over the real details of actually investing. I handle every issue head-on and then provide you step-by-step proven solutions to make this work from anywhere in the United States.

I will guide you down the right path to success
by providing you with a simple Step-by-Step approach that:

Investing in tax lien certificates is an area that is greatly influenced by state law and general legal rules. I understand this process from numerous angles. I am not just an investor with another book to sell. Rather, I am a licensed attorney and former consulting professional who has seen many sides of the process. First, as a successful investor, second as a real estate attorney, and third as a former business consultant to the Harris county property tax office.

  • Uses simple and established learning methods to make sure you learn and master the material!
  • Gives you precise analysis of your investment state, its trends, timelines, filing requirements and traps…in PLAIN ENGLISH!
  • Discusses the full spectrum of all risk issues: including economic risk, legal risk, and asset protection issues. Step-by-step instruction is given on how to reduce these risks!
  • Provides you with a step-by-step action plan to walk you through the necessary steps for mastery of the tax lien certificate investment process!

Just a quick note to let you know that I have bought my first tax deed property. Its valued at $75,000. Min bid of $4500. I bought it for $8,200.

It gets even better. Its a rental property that currently brings in a rent of $900 per month. The tenant has 9 months left on his lease. I met the tenant and he is willing to purchase the property from me for $65,000….Wow.!!!

Of course, all of this is only made possible through all your help and your course teaching me “due diligence”. There is a 6 month redemption period and very little chance of the property being redeemed.

Best outcome: Paid $8,400, collect $900/month for 6 months. At the end of 6 months own the property for pennies on the dollar. Add a couple of months again get title insurance – sell property to the renter for $65,000.
No loss situation!

I would like you to know just how grateful I am for all your help and for your wonderful course that you have put on concerning Tax deed investing in Texas. This puts a totally new spin on my life and hopefully I will be able to accomplish all the things that I have dreamed of.

This is only made possible through you and your very well written course.

Why Is This Course Unique?

This course is different not only because it contains straightforward legal and economic analysis, but because it uses simple and well-established learning methods to help you learn the material quickly and with a greater rate rate of retention. One advantage you will find integrated throughout this product is:

Context-Based Learning means that after you learn a technique or rule you are asked to apply it in a slightly different context. This reinforces your learning process and ensures you can perform when it counts. You will also find that throughout the course I explain each critical process in many different ways so that you are sure to learn it from all angles.

I have also employed context-based learning to enable you to learn from a real-world setting. Below is an example found on page 56 of the course. It is used so that you can obtain a first hand picture of the processes through actual search screen results, rather than just reading about dry theory.

Actual Example Found on Page 56:

We now have a great deal of information to work with. Let’s review each of the areas included in our search result. Each number below corresponds to the flagged citations above:

 

1. Property Number: This once again is the property account number. Notice that the ‘tax parcel number’ just below the property number is the same. This will be true in almost all states. If there is an exception we will discuss it in the individual state sections.

 

2. Situs Address: This is the physical address of the property. Remember when I told you not to worry about trying to figure out the legal description? That is because…

These techniques will allow you to learn this material easier and faster than you may have thought possible. Learning studies conducted by major universities have supported the position that context-based learning: 1) leads to greater confidence when presented with real-life scenarios, 2) keeps the information entertaining and fresh, and 3) allows you to apply the information in numerous circumstance rather than just in the ‘cookie cutter’ format you may have been taught previously.

Sadly, context-based learning has not been used by many authors. I understand the material from the standpoint of an attorney, a real estate investor, a government consultant, and the student. Because I understand this process from so many angles, I have been able to focus on delivering it to you in the ideal form and most effective order possible. I believe you deserve nothing less.

Unless you can put raw facts and legal rules into a workable strategy they are useless! I do not throw around information and rules without first making sure that you have the big picture. I also believe that technique is everything. The timing of your decisions, research, and analysis is critical.

Does crunching numbers bothers you? Well don’t worry, the formulas included (such as the tax lien certificate value analysis) are very simple to perform and take about 3 seconds to complete. Nevertheless, the information you can derive from them is priceless. You will learn to perform all of these techniques, formulas and research steps in the exact order needed to minimize research time yet derive the greatest benefit.

As an attorney, I am very passionate about teaching you the ‘good’ and ‘bad’ parts of this investment method. There is no such thing as a perfect investment or a ‘get rich quick’ technique. If you are looking for those types of promises then don’t buy any of the products I have created.

As a legal professional, I believe a product must cover almost every angle of the real estate investment method: including economic issues, legal rules, risk reduction, and asset protection issues. I have covered the legal rules of each state in a precise manner, but I have also not forgotten that some of you may not be experts!

That is why I use numerous examples, common sense explanations, and diagrams whenever possible throughout the course. I know that I understand the material, my job is to make sure that you understand it.

Actual Example Found on Page 303:

For this section I have included 3 quick diagrams which illustrate some of the sale opportunities that happen after the regular sale. These are:

  1. Assignment Purchase Opportunity,
  2. Resale (Tax Deed Purchases), and
  3. Left-Over Tax Deeds (after the resale)

The diagram below describes the first sale opportunity: 1) Assignment Purchase Opportunity:

Tax Lien Legal Analysis

So as you can see the purchase process lasts from October to June. The large ‘double sided’ arrow means that assignment purchase opportunities are available after the regular sale in October (Month 1) to the time of the statutory resale which is usually in June (30 to 32 months) after the regular sale…

If you do not understand the picture diagram, don’t worry since just below it you will find another explanation. I always believe in summarizing legal rules in many different ways. This particular rule exists in Oklahoma and is one of the most confusing statutes I have come across…so I created a simple diagram and explained in several different ways.

What if you still don’t understand a rule? Don’t worry it happens! My email address is also included on every page of the product. If you still don’t understand an issue or rule you can email me and I will get back to you. You will soon learn that when you purchase the course I will provide you with unlimited email consulting. While I am very busy, I still answer my office phone and respond personally to emails. I do this because I want to remove all barriers from your path. In fact, you can email me for clarification for as long as you own this product!

I believe in complete coverage of risk issues but I also know that for these techniques to be effective you have to know when to avoid risk and when to manage risk. While it’s very important to understand potential risk issues, it is also absolutely important that you are given the exact steps you must take to reduce your risk.

My risk reduction techniques are given to you in simple step-by-step tasks. I tell you which county, state, and Federal departments to access and exactly what to ask for. I provide you with all the step-by-step tasks needed to greatly reduce your risk…you need to only apply the techniques.

Reducing risk is a very important aspect of any investment technique. I am amazed and sometimes troubled when I review real estate courses which spend 80% of the materials covering the positive aspects of the investment technique yet they devote so little time to the negative aspects. To me that is a fluff product and a waste of money and time.

I always demand to know what could go wrong and why. I want to know where the pitfalls are, the unsettled areas of law, and the drawbacks. I devote approximately 50% of this tax lien certificate guide to risk issues and their avoidance. If you want a technical, real-world, nuts and bolts product without the marketing fluff then you will be very happy with this product.

An action plan will be your guide through this course. I have taken the time to carefully consider how and when you review certain portions of the course. This is done to maximize your education.

You will notice that the course contains 4 hours of CD audio discussion in addition to the written materials. The CD audio material is not just a summary of the course book. Rather, it is an advanced review of the materials found in the course book. The action plan makes sure that you review the right materials at the right time and takes you through three practice sessions. These practice sessions will allow you to test your knowledge and skills before confronted with the ‘real thing’.

The end result is reinforcement of the materials you have read and a much higher level of retention and understanding.

The real challenge to investing in tax lien certificates comes when trying to avoid the various state deadlines and hidden traps which can hinder the inexperienced investor. My goal has always been to take my students beyond the basics. You will find much detail in my materials. I am determined to provide my customers the highest levels of training and all the details I know. I can’t forget the empty feelings I felt when I purchased courses that delivered far less than promised: I will break that cycle!

Recent Testimonial

You saved me thousands of dollars with your tidbit of information on looking at the date of the cause number. I had already walked in to buy a struck off property with a a “$1,600 lien”. The property was worth $15,000 FMV (fair market value).. I couldn’t run to the tax office fast enough. But when I got there they told me that taxes had accrued to > $4,000… The auction date was recent but the judgment was old…after reading your course I know to compare both when considering the property. Your course definitely saved me a lot of time and surprises…

The course really takes you by the hand and gives you EVERYTHING you need to know to go out and understand what is going on in these tax auctions…

He has never tried to up sell me on more expensive seminars or lectures, but has rather always answered my email questions within a day or 2 at no charge whatsoever…*
