Tax Lien Certificates
In this section, we will address the issue of tax lien certificates. With a tax lien certificate, the investor only has a lien on the property and does not have any other rights in, or title to, the property. The investor receives a statutory interest rate until the property tax is received. The property owner has a statutory redemption period within which he or she must pay the tax bill. This period generally ranges from six months to four years. About one-half of the states are lien states.
The states are as follows:
Alabama
Arizona
Colorodo
District of Columbia
Florida
Illinois
Indiana
Iowa
Kentucky
Maryland
Mississippi
Missouri
Montana
Nebraska
New Jersey
North Dakota
Ohio (Ohio is historically a deed state, however, counties with populations over 200,000 are allowed to conduct lien sales.)
Oklahoma
South Carolina
South Dakota
Vermont
West Virginia
Wyoming
