This particular strategy was personally told to me by Jimmy while we were driving from Phoenix to Las Vegas in the early 1980s to attend a real estate exchangers conference and exchange session.   

I know a really good guy personally who built up his company from frostburg

@Zachary Gwin  Send me a message with your email address if you still need one.

There has been some confusion on this point, and emails to me with questions.If you have an Alabama tax lien you purchased through Govease.com (or you bought it from somebody who bought it through GovEase.com) you are NOT entitled possession.

For background this is my first investment and I own the property personally not with an LLC or anything of that nature. 

I personally would put down 20 percent and keep the rest of my cash, even if it meant I wasn't "making money" in the beginning.

Hey @Kyle Kline, these are all great questions to ask and ultimately it will be personal preference. 

When you get them on the phone setup a time to do a zoom call, see how they do business, who the connections are they have, and if you get to know them through those conversations and feel good go meet them in person.

However, the person you spoke with has a good point.

If anyone is interested I have a contact person who can provide more information.
