Almost every county government provides tax lien properties for sale in one form or another. Every state has different laws and different methods for organizing such sales, so if you plan to start purchasing tax lien assets, you need to do your preparation. 

Ideally, you want to learn everything about property tax laws, the recovery period, and other aspects of the tax foreclosure process. If you are looking for tax lien properties for sale in Marbella, make sure you are participating in a tax lien sale, not a tax certificate sale.

A buyer of a tax lien certificate is only purchasing the property owners' tax debt, which the owner must now pay to the holder of the certificate; otherwise, the holder may hold the property. To find such properties, you need to contact the county where you plan to buy.

You can either call or in most cases, visit the county's web site. They can tell you where and when such an auction is taking place and can either provide it to you or tell you how to get a list of properties for sale. Often times the auction is published in the local newspaper.

Once you get the list, you want to search for the qualities that are worth your time and money. Of course, you want any such property to be higher than taxes, fees, and penalties. You can find out such information as the appraised value of the property, and the location of the property, plus taxes owed against it, and any such improvements, if made on it.
