Tax Lien and Tax Deed Investing

 The tax lien Certificate and tax deed Process and How it Works

The entire tax lien certificate process begins when a property owner lets their real estate property taxes go unpaid. To get the money they are owed the county sells the Tax Certificate Lien on the property that has delinquent taxes on it to an Investor.

If the Real Estate Property Owner pays the back taxes owed (Including Interest & Penalties) to the County or Taxing District, the Investor is notified and has to return the tax certificate. When the county or taxing district receives the tax lien Certificate, the Investor is paid the amount of the certificate, plus accrued interest.

In the meantime, the county or taxing district has had use of the money it was owed (the amount the investor paid) needed to run the government.

With tax deeds the process begins when a real estate property owner lets their taxes on their real estate go unpaid. The county then auctions the property to the winning bidder (remember that state laws differ).

Scenario A: The county auctions the deed to the property, the sale of the property is final and the winning bidder receives a Treasurer’s Deed or similar Deed to the real estate property.

Once the redemption or “Waiting Period” has passed, i.e. 12 months in Georgia and 180 days in Texas, the winning bidder Forecloses out the “Right of Redemption” and becomes the new owner of the real estate.

If the property owner pays up on the delinquent taxes and penalties within the statute mandated “Redemption Period” they maintain ownership of the real estate.
