How IRS-lien properties work as a signal
A federal tax lien is among the most serious encumbrances a property can carry — the IRS files it when back taxes go unpaid, and it signals pressure severe enough to often precede a forced or discounted sale. These liens are public record yet rarely mined, leaving a lightly-contested pool of highly-motivated owners for investors who know to look.
