How many Tax Liens have you successfully won?
I know there are a few Tax Lien investors in the group, I am trying to see how many success stories are out there with investing in tax liens.

I have gotten as many as 5 houses in one year. I had one year I got none. I average 2 or 3 house per year. I don't have to foreclose. After 12 month redemption period is up the county mails me deeds. I have gotten houses for as cheap as $1200 that already had a tenant in them. It has gotten more competitive over the years, but I'm still getting more houses almost every year. Success rate is between 4% and 20%. The key is to get as many liens as you can for as cheap as you can to increase your Chances.
