Finding a tax lien property for sale is pretty easy. Finding a property that is worth buying, especially in today’s economic climate, is a bit more tricky. My goal with this brief article is to show you 3 different ways to find pending tax lien sales worth buying… and how to find them for free.

But first, the basics…

What are tax lien sales?

A tax lien sale is when a government agency auctions off any tax liens against a property to recoup any delinquent taxes against the property. These sales are usually conducted by the tax collectors office or the sheriff’s office.

It is important to note that there are two different ways for the government to collect delinquent taxes. One would be this type of sale (tax lien sales), and the other is known as a tax deed sale.

In a tax lien sale, the investor is buying the lien itself. The winning bidder will receive a certificate at the end of the auction that entitles the investor to collect payments for the delinquent taxes, often at a high interest rate. This certificate also allows the investor to foreclose on the property after a specified redemption period if the taxes remain unpaid.

In a tax deed sale, the real estate itself is put on the auction block. The winning bidder takes possession of the property in the form of a tax deed.

Whether your goal is to invest in tax liens or to bid in tax deed sales, the first step is the same: Identifying properties that have tax liens against them.

Where are tax lien records maintained and recorded?

More times than not, tax liens are filed and maintained at the state level. This means two things for you as an investor:

1. There may be a bit more legwork involved (these databases are seldom on the internet) 2. If there is more legwork, there is a much higher chance that you will find worthwhile properties

Generally speaking, the easier it is to find an investment opportunity, the less valuable it is. As my mentor always told me… “Always look for problem properties… and look where nobody else is looking.” The best deals are always the ones not many people know about, or the ones that not many people know what to do with.

With that said, this is…

How to find tax lien properties in your state

1. The county recorders office

This is the most time consuming strategy, but is very accurate. Every county in the U.S. has a place where public record is recorded. This would include things like deeds, wills, notices, mortgages and both federal and state tax liens.

Many times there will be a computer on site where you can search across the records. Doing a search for something like “tax lien” will usually uncover a vast list of properties that you can then pay to print out.

2. Tax collectors office

The tax collector usually maintains a list of properties that are going into tax deed sale as well as properties the state is offering tax lien certificates against. Give them a call to make sure they maintain such a list, and it isn’t held at the Sheriff’s office. Then ask what the procedure is to get one of these lists. They may give you a bit of a hard time; simply remind them that this information is public record and you should be all set.

3. Local Newspaper

As part of the sale process, the county must give “public notice” of all upcoming tax sales. These are always either before or after the classifieds. Go through this section religiously… it is your new golden goose. Make note of the properties that look interesting, and do your due diligence from there.

4. Subscription based list services

This is the only strategy that will cost you some money… which is why I didn’t mention it earlier. Consider it a bonus.

Honestly, these types of services are a dime a dozen. Some are better than others. The biggest benefit is the speed that you get access to the information. Always look for ones that update often; generally speaking, locally based websites are better than national ones. If you do a basic search on Google you’ll get a list of plenty to choose from.

Full Review at: www.carbuyer.co.uk Volvo has long worked hard to be seen as a credible alternative to the big-selling premium German firms. And the S60 might just be the car to take on Audi, Mercedes-Benz and BMW – it feels like a very high quality product indeed. Despite Volvo’s sporting aims, the S60 is a more comfortable drive than such rivals. That’s a good thing, given the poor state of the UK’s roads. The S60 was introduced with a range of powerful engines, while top-of-the-range models come with four-wheel drive. The economy-focused 1.6 diesel DRIVe version offers sub-115g/km of CO2, meaning you’ll only have to pay £30 annually in Road Tax. Do you own this car?

Tax Problem Solver – Why You Need Professional Help

Tax problems come in different forms; IRS tax problems, State tax problems, and Sales tax problems. Tax authorities are constantly increasing their tax enforcement efforts through tax collection and tax audit.

When taxpayers receive the dreaded tax notice that their tax return or their business is going to be audited and examined, the first thing they should do is seek professional tax advice. Same thing when taxpayers receive collection letters threatening levying and garnishing their wages or paychecks, or the tax levy letter for their bank account, taxpayers should seek professional tax advice to resolve their tax problems.

The most common options to resolve your tax problems are:

* Full Payment: paying the amount on the tax notice and avoiding the confrontation with the taxing authority. Most of the time, this option is not the best option for the taxpayer to resolve their tax problem, as often the tax bill is inaccurate.

* Pay The Correct Tax Only: paying the actual amount of taxes if you can afford it is usually a good solution to your tax problem. This will entail working with the taxing authority to abate the penalty assessed. The success of penalty abatement is based on reasonable cause and not willful neglect.

* Installment Agreement: paying the tax amount through an installment agreement is a common way to resolve your tax problem. You should seek professional tax advice, as the taxing authority will usually request a large monthly payment, while professional tax representatives will work on attaining an installment agreement that is reasonable and you can live with without causing a financial and economic hardship on you and your family.

* Offer In Compromise: an offer in compromise, OIC, will usually be accepted by the taxing authority to resolve your tax problem if the amount offered to settle your tax problem is equal or exceed the taxpayer’s Reasonable Collection Potential, RCP. The IRS, or the State, or the Sales Tax Agency determines RCP by using the financial analysis tools like the 433-A for individuals and 433-B for business entities.

No matter which option is correct to resolve your tax problems, usually there are more than one viable option, it is essential that the taxpayer comply with the tax law going forward. That is, all tax returns are filed timely; all estimated income taxes and payroll deposits must be paid timely.

An experienced tax professional who specializes in tax representation would be the best person to have in your corner when the IRS, the State, or the Sales Tax Agency contacts you.

The most surprising fact of all after plumbing the depths of what to do when the IRS contacts you regarding a tax problem is how shallow the well really is. With the lull in activity on the IRS tax audit and collection front, there are relatively few pronounced tax-experts. The $345 billion dollar tax gap remains fascinating to the US Congress and the IRS. It is a high profile item!

The IRS released tax records on their most famous tax problem cases that imprisoned Al Capone, they inadvertently nabbed the Governor of New York allegedly spending tens of thousands of dollars for what they least expected. From Will Smith, to Wesley Snipes to Nicolas Cage IRS audits and collection are on the rise, and is expected to continue for many years to come!

So, do you have a tax problem yourself? Do yourself a favor and take action to resolve your tax problems.

paul.house.gov http Faced with continuing economic decline and an impending election, the administration, predictably, is entertaining the idea of another stimulus package. To explain why the last one didn’t work, adherents to the Keynesian economic philosophy are claiming that they actually did work – it just looks like they didn’t because we don’t realize how much worse off we would be right now without trillions of dollars of public spending. The last administration bought into Keynesianism just as much as this one does, unfortunately. Until we have leaders who understand that debt is not the way to prosperity, there will be no stopping runaway government spending. While it is nice to hear about business tax breaks, the positive results of these tax cuts will be dwarfed by its negative effects. First of all, $200 billion or so in temporary tax cuts and credits to businesses are nothing compared to the $3.8 trillion in tax hikes that will hit the economy like a ton of bricks on January 1, 2011 if the Bush tax cuts are not extended by Congress. Second of all, businesses are reluctant to hire and invest, not because they are looking for temporary credits, but because of future uncertainty; they simply don’t know what the government is going to do next and how future government policies will affect decisions they make now. What new costs and regulations will be placed on them with healthcare reform and financial services reform? Will Congress convene a lame-duck session …
