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. 

What was your overall bid amount?

How many tax liens did you bid on?

How many tax liens did you win?

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.
