There's really no good win to either party not making payments.

Depending on the size of the county - many properties are posted - a lesser amount actually get to actual Auction as owner has until last minute to clear up the deficiency or some type of legal maneuver is filed to forestall the actual sale. you'll actually see some properties Pulled and a month or so later it shows up again.It's a real "crap shoot" as to what you can buy - and you have to PAY CASH that Day if you are successful in winning the bid.Sheriff's Tax Sale are another animal as well with "Right Of Redemption".  

Plus you don't have to go through a bank...seems like a win-win.

It is not easy for sure, but it is what gives you the investor edge on the market and tilts the odds dramatically in your favor ... heads you win big, and tails you win small, but the house always wins and you are the house.

I love solving problems and building win win situations for all parties involved. 

Knowing who is funding projects helps you understand where the big players think the market is going.  

, and there are a lot of players.

It was a win/win.

Until you win them over, they are likely not to share much with you.  

@Mariah Bonkowski You only have to drive through the city with the tax list and you will see Plenty of the bad and Ugly.On the surface tax liens seem like a win win situation. you either earn high interest or you get a property.
