#66: Investing in tax liens may sound scary and complicated. But as you’ll see from today’s podcast interview, with a little bit of research upfront, it can be as easy as buying toilet paper on Amazon. And the capital required to invest can be as little as a couple hundred bucks, making it a low-risk way (compared to buy-and-hold real estate) to try a new investing strategy.

This week, I deep dive on tax lien investing with Phil Kessler, a prolific tax lien investor who has extensively researched the tax lien investing laws of multiple states. He also creates a lot of educational content about tax lien and tax deed investing online.

We discuss:

• How tax lien investing works + how to make money from it
• Differences between tax lien vs. tax deed investing
• How tax lien interest rates are set + realistic rates you can expect
• What makes an ideal tax lien investment
• Due diligence checklist for analyzing tax lien deals (and how it differs from typical real estate investing due diligence)
• Tips and tricks for evaluating physical property condition, environmental risks, etc, when you can’t access the house
• How tax lien auctions work + winning bid strategies
• How tax lien investment funds work + tradeoffs of investing in a fund
