Frequently Asked Questions And Important Information:
How Did You Acquire This Property? Why Are You Selling It?
I manage a portfolio of tax lien certificates primarily in Florida, but I also hold tax lien certificates in Arizona. A tax lien certificate is basically a loan that is made when a property owner is unable to pay their property taxes. These tax liens are made by the County Tax Collector, and then the tax collector sells the liens to private investors (like me). These tax liens pay interest just like a mortgage or other loan. When the property owner pays off his delinquent taxes the tax lien is automatically paid off. However, once in a while an owner does not pay the delinquent taxes. In this case a foreclosure is begun and I become the new owner. I acquired this Lot in this manner.
The prior owner, Edna Pearl Graham inherited this land from her sister Alva A. Moody who passed away in 1991. Edna paid property taxes until 2012. I purchased the tax liens directly from The Yavapai County Tax Collector for Tax Year 2012 through 2023. I started the foreclosure process on the land in 2024, and since the taxes remained unpaid, the property then transferred to me by Judgment Deed on 01/29/2025.
​
I would like to reinvest my funds into other tax lien certificates as soon as possible, so I am offering this lot here at a deep discount.
​
I choose to sell my land directly (For Sale By Owner) to avoid fees. Realtor commissions, escrow and other fees can easily exceed $2,500. By selling to you directly, I can avoid most of these fees and pass a great deal along to you!
If The Prior Owner Did Not Pay The Taxes,
Does This Mean The Lot is Worthless?
This Lot is far from worthless! There are numerous homes in this area, and as such this lot would make a great homesite or a great investment lot for future growth & appreciation!
​
This area is experiencing growth, New Homes are popping up all over. In fact, over 40 new homes were built in the nearby area in the last ten years (see photo). As such, this lot would make a great investment lot for future appreciation.
​
Please See The Photo That Shows Comparable Land Sales In This Area. You Can See Many Recent Comparable Sales on The Photo, As Well As Numerous Comparable Lots That Are Currently Listed For Sale by Realtors.
How Do I Pay?
For the quit claim deed option:
​
Buyer will need to send funds to my bank by wire transfer, or send cashiers check or money orders by mail. Buyer will need to provide legal name(s) of the new owner(s) and how title will be held. Once your funds have cleared I will prepare a quit claim deed and send it to Yavapai County to be recorded.
I will pay ALL THE FEES for preparing & recording the quit claim deed.
​
WHAT YOU PAY FOR THIS LOT IS WHAT YOU WILL PAY! No additional fees will apply!
​
Please also note that Apps like Pay-Pal, Venmo, Zelle, Google Pay, etc. are NOT available for Real Estate Transactions (Their Rule Not Mine) So I am unable to accept payment via these apps.
​
Please also note: Local Pickup is not offered, Deed will be delivered directly to Yavapai County to be recorded at my expense. You as the Buyer will only pay the purchase price--not one penny more!. I will pay all deed preparation and recording fees.
In most real estate transactions you will pay $500 or more for Deed preparation and recording, But not with my sales! I will pay ALL THE FEES for preparing & recording the deed. WHAT YOU PAY FOR THIS LOT IS WHAT YOU WILL PAY! No additional fees will apply!
For the warranty deed with title insurance option please contact me for more information.​​
What About An Escrow?
I am able to offer this lot at a deep discount by keeping the fees and costs low. Escrow fees can easily run $400 to $500 or more. This is why I ask the Buyer to directly wire funds to my bank, or send a cashiers check or money orders for the purchase price. I am very trustworthy, Check out my feedback--well over 1,500 with 100% positive feedback!
​
However if you are concerned about sending money to someone you have never met before, I am not opposed to using a third party escrow service that will hold the money until the quit claim deed is recorded. I just ask that if you want to use an escrow service that you pay the escrow fees.
​
Any neutral third party escrow service would be fine, but I would recommend Safefunds.com, they work in the USA as well as 124 other countries world wide with complete transaction protection and secure payment services. They are a great company and they provide top notch customer service at the lowest prices I have found. Escrow Fee for this transaction using Safefunds.com would be just $185.
​
If you have questions on the Escrow Service please feel free to give me a call.
What About Title, What Type Of Deed Will I Receive?
You will receive a Quit Claim Deed which will transfer all of my interest in the property to you. A Quit Claim Deed is a valid legal instrument that is used to transfer interest in real property—it is just as valid as any other type of deed.
I use a Quit Claim Deed because I acquired this land via a Judgment Deed. In Arizona Title Insurance is typically not available for the first year following the issue of the Judgment Deed. This is because Judgments can be appealed. The appeal period is generally 30 days following entry of the Court’s Order but can run up to one year for parties served by publication. While an appeal would be very, very, very rare, I can not guarantee that the prior owner will not file an appeal, so I must use a Quit Claim Deed to transfer the land to you.
​
The Judgment Deed which was issued by the Yavapai County Tax Collector transferred 100% ownership of this land to me. I am now the owner of the land. When I record your Quit Claim Deed you will acquire all of my interest in this land, making you the new 100% owner of the land … in essence it would be just as if you had purchased the tax liens and had done the foreclosure yourself.
​
Please keep in mind; one of the reasons this land is aggressively priced is because it was acquired via a Judgment deed.
​
The Judgment Deed On This Lot Was Recorded On 01/29/2025, So The One Year Period Will End On 01/29/2026. After that date you should be able to get an owners title insurance policy, and/or resell the lot and offer a Warranty deed with title insurance.
If You Would Prefer To Purchase This Land With A Warranty Deed With Title Insurance It Is Available For An Additional Fee,
Contact Me For More Information
What About The Property Taxes?
PLEASE NOTE:
The 2023 Taxes Have Been Paid,
The New Owner Will Be Responsible To Pay The 2024 Taxes.
As of March 2025 The Total Owing For The 2024 Taxes Is $52.16.
What About Liens or Mortgages?
I acquired this land in a Tax Lien Foreclosure. The Tax Lien Foreclosure / Tax Deed Process eliminates virtually all mortgages and liens. ONLY IRS LIENS and some City/County/State liens can remain.
IRS Liens as well as City/County/State Liens are part of the Public Record in Arizona. By entering the prior owner's name into the clerk of court's public records search the record will emerge.
​
Please do your own due diligence, the prior owner's name is Edna Pearl Graham.
​
I have attached a photo of the Prior Owner's Public Record. The Prior Owner's Public Records are Super Clean, I did not see any IRS, City, County or State Liens.
I am Not A U.S. Citizen Can I Buy The Land?
Sure, I welcome International Buyers, but I do have some requirements. If you are a foreign buyer you MUST pay by either wiring funds to my bank (in U.S. Dollars) or obtain a cashiers check from CITIBANK, CHASE, WELLS FARGO or BANK of AMERICA and pay in US Dollars. You must send the funds via a method like priority international mail with tracking availability. Once your funds have cleared I will prepare a quit claim deed and send it to Yavapai County to be recorded. I will pay ALL THE FEES for preparing and recording the quit claim deed. Deed will be returned to you by normal international mail (no tracking). You can also access The County Clerk of Court website to print a copy of the deed once it is recorded. Future property tax bills will be mailed to you by the county, or can be paid online.
​
If you are concerned about sending money to someone you have never met before, I am not opposed to using a third party escrow service that will hold the money until the quit claim deed is recorded. I just ask that if you want to use an escrow service that you pay the escrow fees.
​
Any neutral third party escrow service would be fine, but I would recommend Safefunds.com, they work with 124 countries world wide with complete transaction protection and secure payment services. Safefunds.com provides top notch customer service at the lowest prices I have found. International Escrow Fee for this transaction using Safefunds.com would be just $185.
​
If you have questions on the Escrow Service please feel free to give me a call.
It Seems To Good To Be True, What's The Catch?
I have tax lien certificates in over 40 counties in Florida as well as in Arizona. As a result of dealing with such a huge number of tax liens I occasionally will acquire a property for just the un-paid taxes and fees. When I acquire a property my only interest is to liquidate the property and reinvest the funds as quickly as possible. Because my cost to acquire the property is low it means I can pass along a great deal to you!
Why Don't You Sell The Property In The "Normal" Way?
I choose to sell my land directly (For Sale By Owner) to avoid fees. Realtor commissions, escrow and other fees can easily exceed $2,500. By selling to you directly, I can avoid most of these fees and pass a great deal along to you! Also, time is money! Selling vacant land at Full Retail Prices usually takes a very long time. I would much rather sell quickly and reinvest the proceeds into more Tax Liens.
