Check water availability before you buy.... Diablo Grande has become a mess.

Saw a similar deal like this in Texas a year or two ago.  Lots in development, but no water.  Local water source can't add meters/taps.  Doesn't have enough money to drill deeper well.  Water restrictions for existing home prohibit pool filling, car washing, lawn watering.  Lots were all about 1/4 acre, but need a full acre to drill your own well and that's probably another $20,000 in expense.

@Bruce Lynn I don't understand. Are you telling me that I have been lied to and that tax liens are not really risk free? 

It says so right on the internet

      Government guranteed return, no risk. Either I get high rate of interest on my money or a get a property for pennies on the dollar.
