Truth About Tax Lien Certificates Video Explains How to Buy Tax Lien Certificates on TedThomas.com
(PRWEB) July 17, 2013 -- A new educational video from Ted Thomas, America's tax lien and deed specialist, explains how to buy tax lien certificates. Almost half the counties in the United States sell tax lien certificates, one of the safest investments available. The video, “Truth About Tax Lien Certificates,” available at Tedthomas.com, shows how tax certificates are backed by real estate, which allows investors to get significant returns without the excessive risk attached to many other investments.
A lien is like a mortgage, and the government lien has a priority. It's a senior lien. That means the government gets paid first. They are used to recoup unpaid property taxes. Local governments offer liens to create revenue to pay for schools, police, fire departments, libraries and county employees. To remedy the unpaid taxes, the local government or municipality will offer the public the opportunity to buy tax lien certificates. When the tax certificate is sold, the government has the money, and the property owner has a lien against the property. This allows the property owner time to find the money to pay the delinquent taxes.
“Compared to banks and the stock market, tax lien certificates are all secured by the property,” Ted Thomas explained. “It is rare that a property owner does not ultimately pay the taxes. Typically, over 95 percent of all taxes are redeemed. That means the property owner paid the taxes. The reality is only a few percent don't pay the tax.”
"This is a simple system,” Mr. Thomas continued. “It's easy to learn and do. All the reasons you previously have been disappointed with investments have been eliminated. Safety and security is a priority in these troubled times. When you buy tax lien certificates, your investment dollars go directly to the local government. If you are a stock market investor, you are familiar with paying broker fees to buy your investments. You won't have to do that anymore. With tax lien certificates, you invest directly with the government. No middleman. No attorneys. No accounting fees. No commissions to dip into your profit.”
The tax lien business has been around for 200 years. Investing in tax liens is safe because they are secured by real estate, and the investment is protected by the local property tax code. The certificates pay high rates of interest. Once interested investors view the video, they understand the basics of how to buy tax lien certificates.
