Nancy,

I have included the website for the Maricopa County Treasurers tax liens. The sale will be held a day before my birthday, February 1st 2008. However, you can start searching for parcels on January 17, 2008 when the parcels become available for preview.

Are you interested in investing on foreclosures? Because there are literally hundreds and thousands of homes for sale that did not sell at the court house auctions. They are now bank owned and ready to be sold. A savvy investor can find a great deal in this market because of low prices and low interest rates. If you have any questions feel free to contact me.

Your local county assessor will be able to help you if it is a specifically a tax lien. They provide a list of properties that are coming up for sale. Also, if you are looking for a great buy your local Realtor will be able to help. Good Luck

FIRST ANSWER

Call the county in which you are looking for tax liens to find out when the next sale is. (I believe it is coming up very soon)...After the sale, you can buy the ones that didn't sell over the county at the county building.

Also the Arizona School of Real Estate and Business in Scottsdale has an EXCELLENT 4 hour seminar each year on investing in tax liens...if tax liens interest you, take the class! You just don't buy a tax lien foreclosure home, you have to "earn the right" to buy them by paying the taxes for successive years and then foreclosing on them. Most tax liens are redeemed....you dont wind up with the house, but you can wind up with up to 16% interest per year, per lien purchased.
