Investing in Tax Liens - Lessons in Making Money Through Foreclosures

As foreclosures rise, investing in tax liens may be a strategy you want to pursue if you desire to earn money through real estate investing.

Some of the "sure thing" options aren't such sure things anymore.

During the real estate "craze" that began the 21st century, it seemed everyone was making real estate profits without even trying.

You bought a piece of property, waited a few months for appreciation, then sold or tapped your equity. However, as the saying goes, "times they are a'changin".

Because of the real estate boom, many people felt comfortable taking on adjustable rate mortgages (ARM's).

The thinking was based on the paradigm that real estate always goes up dramatically. However, just as the late 1990's taught stock market newbies, nothing goes up 20%-50% or more forever.

The market is slowing and homeowners who took out a 2-5 year ARM with plans of refinancing and taking the expected equity to pay the higher mortgage payment or sell for profit are being shocked into reality.

Investing in Tax Liens
Time for a New Strategy
While this is a time of distress for those holding on to unprofitable properties, it's an opportunity for the real estate investor willing to learn new strategies.

One of those strategies that works well in times of high foreclosure rates is investing in tax liens.

RealtyTrac reveals that in 2006, more than 1.2 million U.S. homes entered some phase of foreclosure. This is almost half a million homes more than in 2005.

When mortgage payments are delinquent, real estate tax bills become delinquent with them. This in turn causes a cash flow problem for local governments. For this reason, the local government allows an investor to pay the taxes in return for the government property tax lien.

This gives cash flow to the local government and buys more time for the homeowner to find the money they need to pay off the delinquent tax bill.

And for you the investor?

Depending on the state you're investing in, you can realize annual returns on your money as high as 50%!

Additionally, you can start small as some tax liens can be had for as little as $6.

Investing in Tax Liens
Safe and Profitable
How many investments can you think of that are safe and profitable? When investing in tax liens, you do actually get both advantages.

First, interest rates on tax liens are set by state law, so interest rate fluctuations have no effect.

Secondly, if you don't eventually receive your money back plus interest, you can take full ownership of the property.

What could be better for you, the investor? Safe and profitable.

Learning the Trade
OK, you like what you're hearing but you don't know the first thing about tax liens.

That's where Steven Waters' Creating Wealth Without Risk program comes into play.

Sure, there is a ton of tax lien info out there to choose from. Why would I recommend Waters' program?

First of all, I have personal experience in dealing with Steven. About three years ago, I had the opportunity to take part in an eight week tax lien teleclass taught by him.

Over those two months I was personally exposed to Steven's knowledge and expertise in this area. His teachings have helped me immensely and that's why I can, in good faith, recommend those teachings to you.

Investing in tax liens can be extremely profitable, but you need to know the basics before starting.

Waters gives you these basics and more with his Creating Wealth Without Risk program...

• Book One: Guaranteed Returns for Pennies on the Dollar, "Discover and Learn How To Build Your Personal Fortune With High Yielding, Government Issued and Real Estate Secured Tax Lien Certificates"



• Book Two: Mailbox Millionaire - Buy Tax Liens Through The Mail, "How to Make Your Personal Fortune Investing in Unsold Tax Liens and Tax Deeds Over the Counter and Through the Mail"



• Book Three: Uncle Sam's Unofficial Guide To Tax Free Returns, "New Strategies For Keeping More Profits With This Easy Step-By-Step Guide For Tax Deferred, Even Tax Free, Profits"

Steven's program also provides you with five extra bonuses, including a Fast Start Audio Boot Camp and video showing you a real tax lien auction.

The best part?

Just wait until you check out the price for Creating Wealth Without Risk.

Investing in Tax Liens
Only the Beginning
To be fair, Steven Waters has put together a quality program on how to become successful with tax liens. It gives you everything you need to get started, but it won't make you money all by itself. You'll need to "learn as you go". You'll need to gain experience by "doing".

I hope that's to be expected but I didn't want you to feel that just because you take advantage of his teaching that you'll make money magically. You'll need to learn the lessons, understand the lessons, but then use that new knowledge.

One thing I find that no one wants to admit when recommending something of value is that there's not a product or tool out there that's the "be all end all".

Creating Wealth Without Risk will get you started, but as I learned myself, you won't become an expert or earn a quality income until you get started and learn advanced tax lien techniques "on the fly".

However, once you do begin the process, expect to have a lot of fun as your bank account begins to get fat ;-)
