“The NTLA has been an invaluable asset to the development of my knowledge, my contacts within the tax lien industry, and my practice. The annual meetings and mid-year events (all of which I have attended) have afforded me the opportunity to be instructed by experts, and to contribute my expertise to a diverse and sophisticated group of embers and guests. It has given me opportunities that I have not had with any other organization. It has certainly been time and money well spent.”

“Today, I write on behalf of the National Tax Lien Association (NTLA). My career in this industry began in 1996, and my involvement with the NTLA started just before its reformation in 1999. I watched this industry grow in popularity, witnessing first hand the effects of institutional competition, misleading press releases, cavalier investors, and the maturity of an industry. It is through Howard Liggett's leadership and diplomacy that this industry gained respect among its peers, including civil teams and legislators. The positive intentions of the mindful and savvy board are carried out with diligence, professionalism, and a touch of class uncommonly found in this size industry. His stewardship and personality continues to bring this group to new heights, setting membership records each year despite high attrition in the industry as a whole.
The combination of his skills and the support of the active board have given the NTLA numerous victories. From dismantling harmful legislation, to refuting outlandish claims in periodicals, to taking active roles in the development of enabling legislation for tax liens, this organization 'gets its done' like no other. All the while, the group maintains a professional and competitive industry environment with all the benefits of a free market.
Truly, my favorite part of being involved with the NTLA is its ability to maintain a strong defense, but with its heart set on offense. The NTLA actively seeks to educate industry members and create opportunities for all those concerned. It is a positive approach to seeking a better tomorrow.
For my clients and my personal investments, I rest comfortably knowing the NTLA is protecting our interests and pursuing new opportunities for our industry.”
