Alabama Tax Lien

Here are the rules for the tax lien sales in Alabama:

Interest rate: 12%
Bidding type: Competitive Bidding
Redemption Period: 3 years + 3 years possession (6 years!)
Opening bid: Comprised of the back taxes, penalties, fees and other charges.

In Alabama there are two redemption periods. The first redemption period starts as soon as the tax lien certificate is issued and lasts for three years.

In Alabama there is a requirement that the purchaser of the tax lien certificate must possess the property for an additional 3 years after they get the deed! This is a significant downside to investing in Alabama tax liens.

The tax lien auctions are held in May of each year. As a holder of the tax lien certificate you are entitled to a 12% interest return per year. Interest is earned on the TOTAL purchase price paid for the property at auction.

There is a way to get around the 3 year redemption period; that is you can buy lands held by the state. These are parcels that did not sell at the primary auction and are being offered by the county for resale. You can effectively reduce the 3 year redemption period by how long the county has offered the property for sale. However, you still must possess the property for 3 years after the initial 3 year redemption period.

My take on Alabama: Due to the long redemption period and also the fact that you have to possess the property for 3 years makes this an unappealing state for us to invest in.

On wednesday we will look at the state of Arizona!

    Hello Web Admin, I noticed that your On-Page SEO is is missing a few factors, for one you do not use all three H tags in your post, also I notice that you are not using bold or italics properly in your SEO optimization. On-Page SEO means more now than ever since the new Google update: Panda. No longer are backlinks and simply pinging or sending out a RSS feed the key to getting Google PageRank or Alexa Rankings, You now NEED On-Page SEO. So what is good On-Page SEO?First your keyword must appear in the title.Then it must appear in the URL.You have to optimize your keyword and make sure that it has a nice keyword density of 3-5% in your article with relevant LSI (Latent Semantic Indexing). Then you should spread all H1,H2,H3 tags in your article.Your Keyword should appear in your first paragraph and in the last sentence of the page. You should have relevant usage of Bold and italics of your keyword.There should be one internal link to a page on your blog and you should have one image with an alt tag that has your keyword….wait there’s even more Now what if i told you there was a simple WordPress plugin that does all the On-Page SEO, and automatically for you?
