Are you ready to jumpstart your journey in tax lien and deed investing? In today’s blog, Dustin shares quick-start secrets to help you take immediate action and get the ball rolling on building your tax lien and deed portfolio.

The Biggest Roadblock: Procrastination

Many aspiring investors get stuck in a cycle of overanalyzing and never actually taking action. The first step to success is to break that habit. Stop waiting for the “perfect time” or the “perfect knowledge”—the real secret is to start, learn, and grow along the way.

Steps to Kickstart Your Tax Lien & Deed Journey

1. Start Where You Are
   • Write down your location and county. If you’re unsure of your county, a quick Google search can help.
   • Research the tax sale schedule in your county. Is it a lien or deed sale? When is the next auction?
   • Mark these dates on your calendar and set reminders to stay on track.
2. Get the List
   • Request the list of tax liens or deeds from your county. This list will show properties available for bidding and give you a starting point for your research.
   • Don’t stop at this year’s list—review prior years to understand the types of properties typically available.
3. Practice Makes Perfect
   • Attend a tax sale, even if you’re not ready to bid. Observe the process, understand the dynamics, and familiarize yourself with the environment.
   • Use a practice list to analyze properties and get comfortable with the research process.
4. Expand Your Reach
   • If your local county’s sales are limited, explore neighboring counties or even other states. Use the internet to access tax lien and deed sales remotely.

Why Action is Key?

You don’t need to know everything to get started. What matters is taking the first step. Whether you buy your first tax lien for $20 or attend a local tax deed sale to observe, every action builds your knowledge and confidence.
