Question by spacelord: Where can I buy tax liens online?
I’m looking for sites that allow you to buy tax certificates for real estate online. (Not cars, and planes!!)

Answer by Shanky
Visit the County websites of the respective sates. They will have a list of properties that are to be auctioned due to tax liens.

Here is the website that provides a list of all the county websites in the US. Just click on the state and select the county. Look for Recorder or Clerk that says Go to Data Online.

Tax Lien Certificates (tlc) Profit Exactly How?

Friday, February 26th, 2010

Well, Real Estate is not exactly my area of expertise, and I’ve known about TLC’s for a while but never exactly understood how it all works. Is there a high risk to this? Can you lose money? I heard you still make money somehow, right?
Heres a scenerio:
There is a tax lien on a nice property, the face value for Tax Certificate is $56.99 and the Delinquent Taxes due for 2008 is $1097.94. The company has a $195 processing fee. What should I expect to spend on this? How do I figure out what interest I earn if the owner of the property pays the taxes owed? Anything about this business would help greatly. Thank you for taking the time to read my question!!
