Dive Into Tax Lien Investing with Cynthia Spirlin
One of the best ways to get started as a real estate and note investor for small investors is to check out tax liens.

In this episode, Scott Carson talks with tax lien expert Cynthia Spirlin about her career and passion for tax lien investing.Watch the original video HERE!Connect with Cynthia HERE!Cynthia Spirlin has worked in the real estate industry for 20 years, gaining experience in drafting contracts, negotiating short sales, and buying pre-foreclosure properties. As a seasoned investor, she is passionate about helping women create wealth through real estate. As a single parent, she understands the need to provide for today and the desire to leave a legacy. After the real estate tsunami of 2009, she helped hundreds of homeowners save their homes from foreclosure and settled over $1 million in debt.

Overcoming the Fear of Talking With Investors
Talking with a potential private investor to fund your deal can be one of the most intimidating tasks as a new real estate investor. You've done all of the work to have a potential investor reach out to you to show their interest in your deal, but you are too scared to pick up the phone and give them a call. Sound familiar?In this episode, Scott shares how to overcome the fear and self-doubt that we all face when it comes to calling investors for the first time. He shares some of the things to keep in mind to overcome those mental blocks and why this is the most important (and often avoided) task that we investors need to keep high on our list of priorities. The good thing is that this gets easier the more often you do it, but overcoming your limited beliefs (and lack of experience) can keep you from leaping to the next level of investing.Watch the original video HERE!Book a call with Scott HERE!Love the show?
