In this episode of The Housing Dept. Podcast, Terence sits down with Haoua, a tax deed and tax lien investor whose community has completed more than 600 tax deed and tax lien deals. Together, they break down how tax deed investing works, why it's different from foreclosure investing, and how it can become another strategy for acquiring properties.
