The tax lien foreclosure process is a great form of investing right. Purchasing tax liens and foreclosing on them gives you the ability to purchase properties at a fraction of their cost. Then you can turn around and either rent them out (and make some steady passive income) or sell them at market value for a tidy profit.

The federal government may also initiate the foreclosure process to collect taxes owed to Uncle Sam. There may be other instances, but for the most part, these are the most common.
