Hello M Ness,Not a dumb question at all.

Every time I have come across said companies they usually have a hush hush ness to them and usually have meetings in weird places and start off by saying well what you do not want to say is this and this is usually the truth.

M Ness, Tax liens in Florida have the potential to pay good rates, but the good properties get bid down pretty low for interest rates.Plus in Florida, even if you own the tax lien and if the owner does not pay the taxes before the redemption period ends, then you can ask the county to foreclose - BUT you don't automatically get the property.
