Question by investor8406: How can I use self-directed IRA money to participate in internet auctions for tax-lien certificates?
I’m trying to get started in investing in tax-lien certificates using money in my self-directed IRA. I’d like to try participating in online auctions for county tax sales, but many of them require you to deposit some sort of “down payment” as good faith money. Does anyone know if/how I can get the money from my IRA for my deposit, so that my IRA completely holds the entire interest in these assets? Thanks in advance for your help.

You need to find a custodian that allows that. Do a google search as I don’t know any names, but they’re out there.

Answer by Ed Atun
They are generally good investments if you only want the 16% interest that they pay. If you want to own the underlying property, they aren’t so good. Of the 50,000 properties advertised for the yearly sale, over half will be paid before the auction. So doing a lot of homework is wasted time.
Many of the properties are worthless. They exist only on a piece of paper. Ditches and alleys and easements and slivers of land.

Be careful. In many or most jurisdictions the original owner has the right of redemption for a certain period.

Count on title insurance to protect your interests. If you or your buyer can’t insure it, you don’t have good title.

Fri, 26 Feb 2010 10:42:27 +0000

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!!
