Probate vs tax deed auctions

What would be an easier strategy to start buying property.

Buying property that is in probate using some creative financing options

Or

Buying tax deeds at auctions or treasures office?

Also, why do you choose that option vs the other option?

how would you go about doing your strategy as a beginner to be safe?

@Timothy Blackman With probate properties, heirs are typically looking to simply cash out, not carry any financing. They don’t have any tax implications to mitigate.
