The Treasurer is required to conduct a tax sale every year to offer Certificates of Purchase on properties with unpaid taxes.
Learn more from the
Tax Sale brochure available at the Treasurer's Office.
Investors attend the tax sale to take advantage of the interest rate of return on the taxes they pay, 15% plus a 3% penalty. Other taxpayers attend the sale to try and gain interest in specific parcels of land around the county. Either way, it's important to know about tax sales and how they work.
