Thomas has sat for more than 200 radio and TV interviews, most recently on ABC, CBS, NBC and Fox and he has been recognized in Newsweek, USA Today and the Wall Street Journal. Ted Thomas is the go-to guy when people want to discover how to invest in secure government certificates that pay 16% and 18%. Ted's best selling Home Study Course titled, Quick Start to Buying Government Tax Lien Certificates & Tax Deeds, is considered the benchmark standard for the Tax Lien Certificate and Tax Deed industry. Thomas also conducts live tours of Tax Lien Certificate and Tax Deed auctions. Houses with tax liens are a safe, secure investment because you won't run the risk of losing large sums of money. Ted's number one suggestions is this: Start out buying vacant residential land. Most mentors won't suggest this, but Ted does for this reason. He wants to make sure his students are staying conservative in their investments. Buying land is a low risk investment, and sell for 10 - 20 cent on the dollar. If you sell it for 50 cent to buyers then you've made a profit! Ted's suggestion is to go slow, stay conservative, and watch your income build. There will never be a shortage of properties. There are 100 million properties in the United States alone, and 2 - 3% of that will go into tax lien territory. Ted's point is that there's no reason to try and rush your business. Let it grow steadily. You'll always have properties to buy and sell. Ted answers these common questions: Q: What is a tax deed auction? A: A Public auction where real estate is sold on property that is delinquent in taxes. A deed sale happens after a tax certificate applies to the tax collector for a tax deed after the certificate has been held for the statutory period. Q: What is a tax lien certification?
