Brian,If you are asking about internet based auctions then it would seem you would have alot more competition and I would only invest in high end properties and not invest more than the land is worth since you aren't physically looking at the properties to limit your risk.The better option is travel to a nearby state that is conducive for tax lien investing and do finish your due diligence by driving by the properties you are interested in.If you aren't careful you could invest potentially invest 15k or so in a property that looked good then it turns out to be worthless.If you had a family member or very close friend you could trust in a good tax lien investing state then you could get them to drive by the properties and you do the internet based research remotely.
