 The 16% Solution How To Get Interest Rates by Joel Moskowitz November 7, 2006
14 out of 17 found this review helpful
An official Library Weekly book review.
EXCERPT:
If you are like most people, you are struggling, without much success, to get the yield back
into your savings. The places to which you are turning are not producing much relief.
RATING:
2 of 5
REVIEW:
The 16% Solution is supposed to be a guide on how to invest in tax liens; however, as you
turn the pages, you find that it seems to cut back and forth with fictional characters and
then law-based jargon. There is an attempt by the author to deliver a point, which is
commendable, but there are many parts of the book that needs editing. While this is an
acceptable guide to investing in tax lien certificates, it would not be a first pick.
OTHER RECOMMENDATIONS:
1. The Beginner's Guide to Real Estate Tax Lien and Tax Deed Auctions [ISBN 0978834607 at other online bookstores]
2. Profit by Investing in Real Estate Tax Liens [ISBN 0793195179]
 Good for Basic Information June 27, 2006

This is one of the books that I keep in my library, probably because when I bought it five years ago, it was the only book available about tax liens. Even though it's a newer addition then when it was first written, it's still dated and now there are other books available that are more complete. It's a good book for basic information about tax liens in the most popular tax lien states. Don't buy it if your interested in tax deeds, it has no information about tax deed states. Because state laws constantly change some of the information is no longer relevant.
Not much help September 28, 2005

Don't waste your money on this one. It was recommended by "Rich Dad" advisors, but doesn't tell you how to get going. And unless you live in or want to travel to one of the 29 "lien states" there's nothing in for you. The other states are not mentioned.
 Good book, informative, a little dated July 22, 2005

This is a good book, quite informative. I read Larry Loftis' similar book before reading this, and I think I like this one better. Half of Loftis' book is filled with pictures of properties he's dealt with or tax lien certificates he's bought. I find this book to go a little more in depth than his book.
Problems with this book: it is a little old (but then again, not much has changed since it was written) and it doesn't include information on every state. It still is a great book to get you started on tax lien investing.

Tax lien certificates are among the safest and most profitable ways to make money. They are safer and more profitable than playing the stock market. This book is a few years out-of-date. Therefore, read another book along with it that was published in the last couple of years to be sure you are aware of any changes in the tax lien laws. The laws differ in each state.
