G'day @Mike Ruscica. I gotta tell you, I'm loving the non performing notes space too! Having had a strong background in tax liens and tax deeds, I'm enjoying my expansion into the notes space, with a big thanks to you!

From using BP, I appreciate the podcasts - it was where I first heard about notes - listening to a podcast with @Bob Malecki talking about them. I also like the wide and varied perspectives from different investors. There is no one size fits all, and so different ideas motivate people in different ways.

G'day Jordan. When you buy a property at a tax deed auction in Florida, you receive a Tax Deed (not a quit claim deed) from the county. The tax deed is seen as a 'cloudy title' so you need to clear the title before you can sell it as a marketable title (with a Warranty Deed & Title Insurance). So you have a couple of options. 1 get a lawyer to do what is called a Quiet Title Action Suit, and go through the process to clear the title. 2. Use a company like Tax Title Services or in Florida use a company called Clear To Sell, to do their analysis and provide a warranty deed and title insurance.

At the end of the day, you can re-sell your property acquired at a county auction using a quit claim deed, but this will significantly limit the potential buyers - as most people want a warranty deed.

I'm looking for private money investors who are interested in a 10% return on their money, secured with a lien on the property.

I will be using the funds to buy discounted properties at county auctions where the county is selling the property for outstanding taxes. I am able to purchase the property for less than 60% of the retail value. 

Please contact me if you are interested. I can then provide more information on my investment approach and together we can determine if there is a good alignment.

Thanks, Simon

G'day everyone

I wanted to let people near Boca Raton FL know that I am starting up a regular meetup to talk about investing in Tax Deeds.

It is a niche that not many investors know about in great detail, so I thought I'd start having a coffee with people who would like to know more. I have been investing in Tax Deeds throughout Florida for the last 2 years, and it was the reason that I moved from Australia to the US. It can be a great method to buy discounted properties....if you know what you are doing. It can be a very risky method if you don't!

So if you have time, reach out to me, or catch up over a coffee and talk about Tax Deed investing.

The meetup is available via this link, or go to Meetup to find it.

Cheers, 

Simon
