Guide To Buying Tax Liens
The Ted Thomas Guide To Buying Tax Liens
In the video linked below Ted introduces one of his successful students, who explained to the audience at one of Ted’s workshops how to buy tax liens, drawing from his first hand experience making money buying tax liens.
Looking to find out more about how to buy tax liens? Then you have come to the right place…
For over 200 years local governments (county, city, township, town, parish) have helped investors make money buying tax liens (officially a tax lien certificate). When an investor buys tax liens from the government the investor is making a loan to cover unpaid delinquent property taxes, this is money the local government needs to operate and pay county employees. State laws regulate the process to protect the investor and the property owner. Depending upon the state, interest rates on tax lien certificates can pay interest rates of 16%, 18%, 36% to reward those buying tax liens. To protect those buying tax liens from risk state laws regulate how the tax lien buyer gets ownership of the property if the delinquent taxes are not paid.
Many investors have learned how to make money buying tax liens from Ted Thomas. He offers training that will help first-time or seasoned investors find the most profitable tax liens to buy and avoid costly mistakes.
The most important recommendation to make money buying tax liens is:
Before buying any tax lien, research the property which is in default to make sure the property has a value greater than the value of the tax lien. Information should be verified; it is critical to determining the value of a property. Understanding and researching properties will almost guarantee you can make money buying tax liens.
For more advanced investors there are many techniques used to find and buy the highest yielding tax liens. If your investment strategy is to own property for pennies on the dollar there are numerous strategies, sophisticated investors use; for example, seek out properties with a sale price much higher than the cost of the tax lien and a lower likelihood of the taxes being paid, resulting in the investor owning the property for pennies on the dollar. One clue that a property’s taxes may not get paid off is if the owner lives in another country.
Ted Thomas has been teaching and guiding others how to make money buying tax liens for over 25 years. Today Ted Thomas is known as America’s Tax Lien Certificate and Tax Deed Authority.

Ted Thomas' tax sale training is among the best real estate courses I have experienced. It is very thorough, and teaches everything a newbie needs to know to get started quickly and to make money very safely with high yielding tax-foreclosed properties. There are approximately 3,000 tax foreclosure liens and deeds sold daily throughout the USA, so the opportunity is virtually unlimited. Ted's website delivers a ton of great information - tax sale calendars, video and text instruction, and instructive online instruction plus a Q&A session five days each week. A three-day intensive workshop with Ted and his experienced coaches presenting top notch instruction really clarifies any questions and concerns about Tax Foreclosures investing. Students can re-attend this boot camp each time it is offered at no additional charge. Ted definitely delivers much more than any other real estate Guru I know of. I strongly recommend his course. There is definitely a lot of money to be made with tax liens and tax deeds.

Ted Thomas, his office, and his coaches are giving a lot of value. The training online and his 3-day auction preparation workshops are complementing each other and worthwhile if you want to learn what you need to know to invest in Tax Lien Certificates and Tax Deeds successfully. His coaches are all actively investing and give you insiders' tips for Tax Sales. During the 3-day live event, I learned important things such as: How to increase your credit. How to protect your wealth. How to prepare yourself for a live and online auction. What land contracts are and how to use them. How CEO space can help you with your business. 13 different ways of selling a tax deed. In conclusion, I highly recommend Ted Thomas and his team if you plan to invest in Tax Deeds and Tax Liens.

I met Ted Thomas many years ago at an event. My wife and I were blown away with his knowledge and professionalism. He showed us a way that we could easily invest in safe and secure tax liens and deeds, and make some consistent returns. Well 3 years later, This journey has been amazing. Not only has my wife and I made money with Ted, His customer service team has been extraordinary. They make time to answer questions and I feel they really want you to succeed. His live events are priceless, since he brings in coaches and other successful students to share their expertise.Thanks again Ted, Kim, Bill W, Bill B, Ashley, Lance, Crystal and the rest of the team, that are helping my wife and I achieve financial freedom.

When I started this program, I have to admit, I was skeptical and quite frankly a little worried about being able to do this while still working full-time. I am so glad that I took the leap, I just went down to Florida a few weeks ago to the 3 day training and I feel confident that not only can I do this, I can succeed and possibly retire much earlier than anticipated. I am planning to attend my first auction in just a few weeks and I can't wait to put all my new skills to use and start making money! Thanks Ted and I really appreciate all the extra effort you and your team put into teaching me how to do this!

Ted Thomas"s program teaches you everything you wanted to know about purchasing Tax Deeds and Tax Liens for pennies on the dollar. I have been with Ted's program for a long time and always learn something new every time I attend one of his workshops. I have purchased multiple tax liens in Florida all at 18% and several properties in Michigan at tax deed auctions. I live in New Mexico where all liens and mortgages stay with the property, so every time I travel I am looking to using my training from Ted to purchase more liens and deeds. Anytime I need assistance I can call Ted's office and talk to his wonderful staff where I receive help anytime I need it. This is a proven program where you can make money from home spending as much time as you want. Bill Roth, Albq. N.M.

Having been an entrepreneur for over 30 years, the most important thing to me is working with systems that are proven but that allow for business creativity, so that you do not get stale or robotic. Ted's systems are strong and there is plenty of room for innovative results and exit strategies. The presenters were down to earth, smart and genuinely shared their successes. The potential to succeed is very high.

Ted Thomas provides real world training for those who want to increase their safe money rate of return through owning tax certificates or by buying the actual properties through tax deeds. I don't think anyone has more experience or teaches the material better than he does.My associate and I attended one of his 3 day events in Florida in Feb 2017 and got a great deal out of it.

I consider myself very lucky to have been one of Ted Thomas' students at his recent workshop in Orlando, Florida. He is the master at Tax Lien Certificate and Tax Deed Sale education because he lives what he teaches. He shared his many years of experience with his students and taught us how to improve our lives and the lives of our loved ones. I am not young myself but can say that this is the most life changing practical education I have ever received. But you have to act on that education. So now it is time to put it into practice. Thank you Ted Thomas and all your staff and coaches for sharing your knowledge with me.

Presenters provided relevant, thorough checklists for conducting property searches, preparing for auctions, and developing exit strategies to prevent surprises and to maximize positive results. The coaches and other presenters shared a variety of options from which each of us can choose to focus, e.g. buy/sell (outright or finance the buyer) buy/rent, buy/own, etc. Mr. Thomas was passionate about teaching useful information, leading us into a new mindset, and refocusing us if discussions got off course. Afterwards, staff very promptly responded to my emailed questions. Followup by staff, e.g. intro video for the Intensive Business Growth System, was timely.

Seminar was presented in a small group approximately 50 attendees. Material was presented in an easy to understand format, and several live past client testimonials as to the success they had after attending The Ted Thomas 3 day weekend. All of the Ted Thomas folks were very friendly and were available to answer questions on a one on one basis. This seminar for me was worth the cost just networking with other folk’s who are interested in and have bought and sold tax deed property.

Absolutely well worth flying out from New Zealand to attend one of Ted Thomas' 3 day auction preparation workshops. Teaching by a very experienced group of coaches and some really relevant technical information from Kerry and especially how to research. The most important thing that is stressed throughout by Ted and his team is to make sure YOU KNOW the RULES of the auction

After attending the Ted Thomas 3-day workshop I was filled with confidence that I had made a quality decision to invest in this program. Several of us attendees discussed the different sources that had brought us to the work shop and collectively determined that Ted and this program is a one in a million high quality program. In addition, their customer service has only been of the highest quality. They are very prompt to respond to all the questions/concerns I have had. They provide a great deal more educational materials and webinars than I expected. It was wonderful to meet and talk with the staff members that are highlighted in the webinar. Not only are these down-to-earth people empowering down-to-earth people looking to increase their income, but Ted himself deserves five stars for his commitment to empowering people to increase their income by showing others how he himself made his personal income. I am convinced Ted Thomas, his team and this course is an authentic program designed to give power to anyone looking to generate income through the world of tax liens and deeds.
