Tax Lien Buyers Club, Don't Do It!!!

[Jonathan Hammann]

First of all sure, maybe you did it and had good time, buttt from what I've read all over the internet its basically crap. Sure the info and videos were good. However they don't tell you the full story.

I was told, like everyone else, that the properties were "screened" ok... sure, long story short my lady who works at Tax Lien Buyers club, pressured me into buying them, saying oh, "these are the last ones, so I need you to hurry and sign them." So I called her and said well I can't even find the addresses. I had to do my own digging and found out after I bought the liens they were actually two lots that are assessed at $2800. Btw I Paid $750 on two of these. Great....(I know it was dumb to just trust, but I guess since thats what the company does is say OH HEY TRUST ME but ultimately its on you...).

I was told that i would receive the liens by the county in the mail in a matter of 2-4 weeks... NOPE! 

Thats when things started feeling scam-ish... 

So, I lost contact over  span of 6 months. I would email but no reply. I literally had to find her on FB and message her, which it was a very fast response. My first message being "HI _____!" (didn't want to give her the tip off of, "oh hey btw how are my liens going?")

I felt a sense of, "oh we sold him these two lots... thats his problem now. Mission accomplished." So three days ago

Anyways I asked her the status of my liens and told her idk what happened we just lost contact. She told me to schedule an appointment with her assistant... cool did. I had to wait 3 days to schedule a phone call with her assistant in which 30 mins prior her assistant emailed me and said, "oh can't make it sorry heres a number to call to get your liens" (the county office)

So I call, ... voicemail... ok no ones fault. It's just upsetting that I waited 3 days for a phone call and got a phone number that went to voicemail. So I message my original lady back and tell her basically I got blown off(respectfully). She says she's sorry and contacts the assistant and boom phone call within a couple of hours. 

She explains to me that Basically ill have to call the country and PURCHASE the liens for anywhere from $60-1000. If i don't Ill lose my "investment" put in... So basically, I'm in this deal for $750 each, and if i want to recoup my money ill have to buy the papers each from the county. Making each one come to $810-1750. for a lot assessed at $2800... Buttt then Ill get stuck with the property most likely. Possibly paying taxes on 2 lots for a long while...

This is just MY STORY, IF IT WORKED FOR YOU AWESOME.

Im mostly upset AT MYSELF for getting pushed around in this the way I did.

ANY ADVICE? Comments? Questions?

I am so disgusted with the Tax Lien Buyers Club, now Pro Source! Our “coach” kept telling us, “oh you will most likely NOT get the properties,” LIES! We got the worthless properties in Port Charlotte, FL!!  We invested lots of $$$ for the education, but then when you attend, they try to sell you additional executive coaching for $25,000. This is for fix & flip! My husband is so mad, he no longer wants nothing to do with them! He wants 1/2 of his money back for the classes since he is no longer attending!

We even paid more for the “diamond vault” properties! What a joke! I so wish I had seen these comments prior to investing any money! Whats our recourse if anything? I want to make sure no one gets sucked into this!!  DO NOT ATTEND ANY REAL ESTATE EXPOS in your area!!! That’s where it all starts!

Have you had any further contact

[Donna Hoskins]

Is there any update on this Tax Lien Buyers Club.  I bought into it a few years ago but didn't pursue it.  I tried messaging them today to get started and the website doesn't exist .  Also tried calling the number in the brochure and not in service.  Has anyone had any recent contact with them??
Or are they out of business because it was a scam.

[Donna Hoskins]

Does anyone have a contact for Buyers Tax Lien Club
Apparently now called Pro Source.

I was wondering if anyone had heard of Tax Lien Code.com and if it was the same as Tax Lien Buyers Club?

https://taxliencode.com/

has anyone looked in to this tax lien code Program? This seema to be very similar to the tax lien buyers club everyone is talking about in the thread. ( 3 day refund policy, 3 day workshop for $1,000 to sign up ) 

If you look on the website the owners name is brian peterson which is strange since I just saw Lia Berry early threads mention the speakers name was chris peterson. 

does anyone know of any relationship between these two company's? is it the same thing?

Quote from @Lia Berry:

Jonathan,

Thank you for posting this! You are doing an incredible service to others.

When I googled “Tax Lien Buyers Club” your post was the second result after their own website - the beauty of the internet is that Tax Lien Buyers Club can’t control the search results, as it is objective.

I have never heard about Tax Lien Certificates before yesterday morning. I attended Hillary Furr’s Seminar about Rules of Renovation and they brought in a speaker called Chris Peterson to talk about Tax Lien Buyers Club and to sell membership to their website for 1600$+

Although the sales pitch was incredibly convincing, I obviously went online to read what users are saying about Tax Lien Buyers Club.

I am very grateful to read about your experience and some of the other commenters. I will obviously stay away from this company and from Hillary Furr’s company that endorsed Tax Lien Buyers Club. 

 check out www.taxliencode.com is the owner Brian Peterson the same guy as the speaker you saw named Chris Peterson?

I am also wondering if Tax Lien Code dot com (taxliencode.com) is the same as Tax Lien Buyers Club. The are charging $40.000  for "continuing education" to be allowed to attend their seminars and computer program. Just wondering what others may or may not have experienced with them.

Hey Jonathan, I’m so sorry to hear about that, hope things squared off for you at the end, I wanted to ask, can’t you just go to the clerks office and ask for a list of tax Lein properties and buy the ones you want?

I agree the seminar groups are a waste mostly. I just went to a Tax Lien Code intro seminar, you know the one where they get you in there then shock you with the $1497/person but if you dump your wallets into my pocket right now...ehm...I mean invest it's only $997 for 2 people? yeah I am glad that the sales guy (Mr. Real Real-estate investor) called me an idiot for not just handing over my cash because its such an awesome deal and look at how much you save. I calmly explained that I'm not his husband and he doesn't have to tell me how "on sale means I'm saving money. and anyone that pitch works on is going to have a rough road.

I warn people about these every chance I get. now that I found this site and other ways to get software that is the same on the back-end for a lot less I am going to redirect people instead of just warn them.

it just seems like they all are just a cult type recruitment. like fortune builders, their line was literally if you give us all your money, you wont need any of your own anyway you use other people's money. guess what, no one will do a deal with you if you don't have any money of your own. no one wants to swim with the kid that obviously can't. and no one wants to entrust money to someone that looks like a financial idiot. due diligence in everything you do.
