What Is a Junior Lien? Understanding Its Role in Tax Lien Investing

Overland Park, KS – August 2025: As markets wobble and portfolios bleed, America’s wealth-conscious investors are moving capital into one of the oldest and most stable asset classes in existence: tax lien investing. Leading that charge is Tax Lien Code (TLC), now ranked #183 on the 2025 Inc. 5000 list of fastest-growing private companies in the U.S., and #4 nationwide among education companies.
This isn’t a tech unicorn or crypto exchange. TLC is a financial education company teaching a government-backed, real estate–secured investment strategy that’s been quietly producing double-digit returns for over 300 years – regardless of market swings, interest rate hikes, or election cycles.
“Most investors are still listening to the same advisors who told them to ‘ride it out’ in 2008,” said Brian Petersen, founder and CEO of Tax Lien Code. “That advice cost people a decade of growth. I refuse to let that happen again – that’s why I’ve been on the road, in city after city, teaching this life-changing strategy. Because right now, those who want to be financially free can’t afford another lost decade.”
Proof of a Movement, Not a Trend
Since launching in 2020, Tax Lien Code has:
- Educated over 100,000 students in tax lien investing fundamentals
- Brought nearly 30,000 people into live, in-person workshops nationwide
- Achieved an unprecedented 95% action rate, with nearly every continued education graduate completing their first tax lien purchase.
- Grown 2,100% in just four years
These students aren’t celebrity investors or day-trading influencers. They’re mothers, veterans, small business owners, and high-performing professionals who are taking control of their financial futures with a secure, government-mandated strategy.
From Classroom to Community
What began as an education platform has evolved into a connected network of investors who share resources, support each other’s deals, and continue building wealth long after their first lien purchase. Many trace their start back to TLC’s free, in-person fast-start event, which runs year-round in cities across America.
“We don’t just teach theory,” Petersen said. “We put tools in people’s hands, connect them to a community, and make sure they walk away ready to execute.”
