 Very Informative November 5, 2004

I first heard about tax lien certificates in Robert Kiyosaki's book "Rich Dad, Poor Dad." I was so intrigued that I had to find out more about it. I am so glad I read this book; it gives state by state information on this little known investment opportunity. Although Pennsylvania, where I live, does not offer tax lien certificates, I am excited about giving this a shot in one of my neighboring states.

Mr. Moskowitz definitely did his research here. Although it may be time for a revision, as I'm sure some aspects of the tax lien field have changed since its publication, I learned a lot about investing in liens from reading this book. I've been researching this for a while, so to any beginners out there, I would also recommend Jim Yocom's book, Tax Lien Certificates. Plus, there's a website, www.taxsale.com, that has a lot of information about tax sales.
All-in-all, this book was very informative, but don't forget that doing good research includes more than just reading one book. Look at my above references and go to see how an auction works. Then you'll be much more on your way.

There are some pretty bored and misinformed people posting on this board. Obviously, despite their raging, bashing and claimsof being tax lien investors, their reviews spew out totally unsubstantiated comments, and these people don't know beans about tax liens. Tax liens are among the safest and most profitable ways to make money. SAFER & MORE profitable than playing the stock market. You can make up to 50% rates of return in some states. One caveat; beware of land in certain areas and research the liens that you are going to buy. Tax liens are profitable, safe and fun. Disregard the 1 star reviewers on this great investment and this great book. Sure it was written back in the early 90's, but not that much has changed. This isn't like personal finance or tax strategies which change almost constantly. The 16% Solution is a great way to learn how to invest in tax liens and I recommend it.

I first heard about tax liens from reading Charles Givens excellent book Wealth Without Risk (now More Wealth Without Risk)Tax liens are a very powerful and safe investment tool. Imagine government guaranteed returns of 18%-50%! WARNING: Many investors hope you never find out about tax liens. I attended a tax lien auction in Miami county, Fl and also one in Pennsylvania. The attitude is somewhat like a library with a hush and everyone looks on you like a outsider. I recommend you attend a auction in your area to fully appreciate the value of tax liens. First, read this book and I also recommend More Wealth Without Risk for tax liens and other financial information. Tax leins are a fantastic way to achieve Wealth Without Risk.

You have to do the work and due diligence. Good things come to those who wait, work and read about it!
