I'm researching tax lien investing and have narrowed down to Mississippi as one of my two target states. Seeking to collaborate with those who have experience doing so. Thanks

@Alexander Felice my FIL is a long-time FSU alumnus and was a trustee for the university for years. He lives in Raleigh and is similarly outraged.

Thanks Chris; much appreciated. I reached out to Five Pillars; excellent endorsement.

Many thanks for your responses; great advice all around. 

Thanks much in advance.

Background - in 2006-2007 I owned a primary residence and 6 rentals. I did not study a lick and made every conceivable mistake that a newbie investor/landlord could make. I was over-leveraged, did no deep deal analyses thus did not know my numbers, not enough reserves, bad tenants, wanted to manage everything myself on the cheap with a full-time job and new family. The crash wiped me out. But I loved real estate. These past several years I’ve saved and invested well. Part of that I put aside as a war chest to get back into investing. My goal was to buy properties all cash and take the risk of being over-leverage off the table.

BP has been a wealth of information and I know that there are other trains of though. But I’m once bitten and now twice shy. Any strong opinions against all cash purchases?

This is excellent; thanks for the post. I plan to reach out to the VA in my areas of focus to get started with this program.
