What Is Tax Lien Investing?
When property owners fail to pay their property taxes, local governments issue tax lien certificates — allowing investors to pay the delinquent taxes in exchange for a legal claim on the property. You earn interest at rates set by state statute, ranging from 8% to 24% annually depending on the state. The lien is secured by an interest in the underlying property, subject to due diligence and applicable redemption rules.

Tax liens are issued by county and municipal governments. Your investment is secured by an interest in the underlying real estate, though proper due diligence is essential.
High Fixed Returns
Interest rates on tax liens are set by state statute and can range from 8% to 24% per year. Rates are not tied to market performance — they're defined by law, though actual outcomes depend on redemption and other factors.
Low Barrier to Entry
Start investing with as little as a few hundred dollars. Unlike traditional real estate, you don't need a mortgage, good credit, or a massive down payment.

Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about tax lien investing and our programs.
What is a tax lien certificate?
A tax lien certificate is a legal claim against a property whose owner has failed to pay property taxes. When you purchase a tax lien certificate at a county auction, you pay the delinquent taxes on behalf of the property owner. In return, you earn interest — often between 8% and 24% annually — when the owner redeems (pays back) the taxes. If the owner doesn't redeem within the redemption period, you may be able to foreclose and acquire the property.
How much money do I need to start investing in tax liens?
You can start investing in tax liens with as little as a few hundred dollars, depending on the county and state. Some tax lien certificates are available for under $500. Our programs teach you how to identify the best opportunities regardless of your budget.
What is the difference between a tax lien and a tax deed?
In tax lien states, you purchase the lien (the debt) and earn interest when the owner redeems. In tax deed states, you purchase the property itself at auction, often at a significant discount. Some states are hybrid, offering both. Our curriculum covers strategies for all 50 states.
Is tax lien investing risky?
All investing carries risk. Tax liens are secured by an interest in the underlying property, and interest rates are set by state statute — but outcomes depend on factors like property condition, environmental issues, and local market values. Some investors view tax liens as relatively lower-risk compared to other real estate strategies, but thorough due diligence is essential. Our coaching program teaches you how to evaluate properties and manage risk.
Can I invest in tax liens from another state?
Yes! Many counties now hold their tax lien auctions online, making it possible to invest in tax liens from anywhere in the country. Our program teaches you how to research and invest in the most profitable states and counties remotely.
Do I need any prior real estate experience?
No prior experience is needed. Our programs are designed for complete beginners starting from zero knowledge. We provide step-by-step training, research tools, and ongoing coaching support throughout your learning journey.
