Tax Deed
If you are looking in to investing in tax deed property, it is important to first check and make sure the sale is not for a tax lien. There is difference, with differnet states having varying rules and procedures. In a deed sale, the actual property is placed for auction. In a tax lien sale, it is only the lien that is offered for sale. Traditionally, the only way to purchase one of these properties was through live county auctions where you had to personally participate. Nowadays, however, the internet has made online auctions a possibility and people from outside of area are able to participate.
