I begin investing in Tax Liens approximately two weeks ago.I felt the timing was right and since I had some disposable income, I jump head first.I am still relatively new to the area and invited a fellow business colleague to assist me with accessing some of the areas; well a partnership was born.Although, we are both novices in Tax Liens, I have a solid background in researching topics (mostly taxation) but I digress so I felt mildly comfortable with this sudden turn of events.Well in hindsight, my partner and I management style is vastly different; this is where the slight nuisances started to appear. 

Depending on your method for building a buyers list you may find out of 10 prospective buyers you only get a good solid response from 2 or 3. 

Towns like these interest me as they seem to have some solid opportunities available for someone with motivation and the will to succeed, while also being home to beautiful mountains with hunting, fishing, and outdoor opportunities.Also I'll be all over these states so if any BP members would like to meet up, get coffee/dinner, and B/S with my wife and I about RE that'd be awesome!

I got everything fixed except the roof, which is required to be replaced sometime during this year - it was expensive:  $1000+ vs $600K for like properties I own in the area but I got it and it is a good, solid investment.  

For my area and the properties that I typically buy I have a good idea of the cost of the policy, but I still call in and get a quote before I purchase.I recently did numbers on a property that I am looking at, made a solid guess on the numbers & when I called my insurance company, I was off by about $1 a month on the premium.

Try out of state investing if your W2 income is solid.

Once you've established a solid track record with your investors, you could probably get more favorable terms.

With the right stratagem you can build a rock solid portfolio with less than perfect credit and a little capital. 

If you're looking to retire in a few years and you want a simple zero hassle lifestyle perhaps a REIT or a solid stock/bond portfolio would be great.  

Hello Wes, I am also a new investor planning on going into wholesaling and have been doing some solid research for about a month so far.
