Basically the winner of the lien pays the owner's property taxes for them and then earns interest from the county if the owner makes good within three years. If they don't pay, the lienholder can start foreclosure proceedings. I consider it reasonably safe, but like all investments there is the risk of losing your entire investment. I have written about it before -- I think if you search for lien in the box at the top it will come up. Or at least I hope so!

I have to admit that I'm not entirely certain what these are but they definitely sound like solid investments (are they secure?). Have you posted about these in the past?
