4 out of 5 stars Good overview   November 2, 2007

This is a good overview of tax liens in the United States. It explains what tax liens and tax deeds are, the pitfalls. It also has a lot of laws and statutes in the back of the book if you really want to get to the technical details. Similarly good reads:

I think there's a newer edition of this book coming soon that addresses online auctions (I see it on Amazon). But this review is for the first edition.

I bought about four tax lien books and this is one of the top two I enjoy (see my other review for the other good one). For one, it really helped you understand the state to state breakdown of all the rules and regulations of each sale. It was helpful to see the specific statutes for reference. It did lack details on online auctions. I would give it 4.5 out of 5 stars, but it seems like the new edition would address my concerns about the new trends of tax liens.

It is so easy to understand and mostly what I liked in this book is I dont want to miss a page and I just read the book on and on..

I started investing in tax auctions a couple of years ago and I bought this book as my first guide and it was certainly a good one. There are weaknesses on this book in terms of online tax lien sales though, seeing as a lot of counties are moving towards that way (Loftis prefers classic auctions versus online auctions). But I find them a lot easier, I don't have to be there in a hot room filled with 30 other people. And I can be 300 miles away doing it, not having to pay a plane ticket or gas.

Overall, it has the information you need to win in tax liens sales and also a bit of information on tax deeds. I also bought a more updated book below that has information on online auctions:

Complete Guide to Real Estate Tax Liens and Foreclosure Deeds: Learn in 7 Days-Investing Without Losing Series by Don Sausa

Oh and I forgot to mention, Loftis and Sausa are real tax lien investors. There are some books out there that I had to put down because they weren't even written by an investor!

I thoroughly enjoyed this interesting book on tax liens. I learned a lot on the subject from the book and attended a tax lien sale shortly after reading the book. The book was well organized and easy to understand the process of buying tax liens. I have just bought another book on tax liens in order to compare the advice given by Loftis in this book to the advice given in the newly acquired book.
