I don’t know if it’s legal or if it’s tax evasion.

Ok… so I understand tax lien investing as a race to the bottom.

There was one company that was owned by an American and she was the most put together, explaining she would list my property under her LLC to help save me the 25% taxes México charges for nightly rentals (I purchased my condo on a tourist Visa) and they did everything.

In 1998 I discovered Tax Lien Certificates and in 2000 was introduced to Tax Deed foreclosures. 

Over the past 7 years my insurance has increased 65% and property taxes another 20%.

I've considered something like this but was concerned I wouldn't be able to generate any legitimate leads or connections. 

Make sure you document your original cost so you can show the loss on your taxes. :-). 

The most southern OR city of Brookings offers tremendous value, and the difference in taxes, insurance and associated carrying costs for crossing the State Line are considerable in comparison. 

Tax free.

I ask because sometimes the tax liability isn't always that bad.I generally consider it better to sell/1031 to scale up instead of cashout refi.
