My next step is to locate other investors (i have located 3 so far, by chance) who, like me, are getting the run around from this company. I know that Jason Hartman was one such individual who was actually interviewed this week by ABC news affiliate in AZ regarding his problems with PIP Group. 

Question: Any suggestions on the best way to "reach out" and identify others who are experiencing the same questionable activity?

Hello Jay....yes, I technically own the property through my IRA. So I am curious to know what professionals in the business would do if they were me. The place is worthless and I certainly don't want to be paying anything on this property. Also, would you agree with Don Konipol regarding his professional input posted earlier? Thank you!

That is certainly refreshing to hear, Don. Thank you for your input. So...I just stay put and forget about it? (I certainly like that option).lol   Also...I am paying $400 a year on this abandoned and boarded-up house....in an area with minimal traffic and hardly any neighbors....should I save my money and drop this policy?

Hello friends,

Is it me or is something fishy going on with this tax lien investment group headquartered out of S. Carolina? I've been an investor since 2006 and things seemed ok for a few years.....but now the redemption checks have stopped coming in, and the 1 property that PIP acquired for me was supposedly worth $40000+ with my $2200 acquisition investment. Yeah right. The realtor couldn't get an offer at auction at a measley $5000 AND the city of Kankakee won't even take the property as a DONATION. 

So...Questions: If I owe $4800 in property taxes on a SFR that is worth only $5000 and I cannot GIVE away the property to the city...what should I do?
