Today’s Audio MASTERCLASS: The Wealth Formula with Saen Higgins
[1:41]- Saen shares something he believes about becoming successful that most people disagree with.
- He believes that a morning routine is a must. It sets the stage for everything.
[3:56] – Saen shares details about The Wealth Formula Academy and his belief in building true wealth.

[9:20] – Saen talks about the strategy of buying properties for 10% of fair market value.
- He made his first deal in 1994.
- Everybody has property taxes, and the county collects that money as revenue.
- When somebody does not pay taxes, the county loses the ability to produce more money.
- The county will give you a tax lien certificate for paying somebody else’s property taxes.
- When taxes are not paid, you will get a guaranteed rate of return.
- If taxes aren’t paid after five years, you can start the foreclosure process and get the property at 10% of fair market value.
