The annual tax sale publication will be available in October.

2. If a tax lien is sold, will I lose my property?

You will not immediately lose your property if a tax lien is sold. The tax lien must be 3 years old before the purchaser of the lien can apply for a Treasurer’s Deed to the property. This gives you a minimum of 3 years to pay-off the tax lien.

Once the purchaser (lien holder) applies for the Treasurer’s Deed, our office will request a title search. Notices will be mailed by certified and regular mail to all persons/entities that have a legal interest in the property.
