The parcels and taxes available are from our public notification requirement as
listed in the Copper Era. As of January 1, these tax amounts are for previous years
that have not been paid. This notification informs property owners of the delinquency
and allows them time to pay these taxes and remove the property from the sale. Therefore,
many of these parcels will not be available for certificate purchase. The owners
have until the day of the sale to pay their tax and we accept the date mailed as
payment date. Some parcels may not be available for the sale due to outstanding
bankruptcies on the property. The amounts listed are taxes only, and do not reflect
interest, penalties and fees required to purchase the certificate. They also do
not reflect partial payments made or prior certificates outstanding that need to
be bought out. The data provided is for your convenience. Please contact the Treasurers
Office if you need additional information about specific properties.
IMPORTANT - Please review the following notices regarding the Lien Purchase and
Redemption inquiries prior to running the inquiries
