A tax deed sale is a public auction where properties with unpaid property taxes are sold to the highest bidder. The sale is typically conducted by the county or local government to recover delinquent taxes.
Here's how it typically works:
1. *Delinquent taxes*: A property owner fails to pay their property taxes, and the taxes become delinquent.
2. *Tax lien*: The county or local government places a tax lien on the property, which gives them a claim on the property until the taxes are paid.
3. *Tax deed sale*: If the taxes remain unpaid, the county or local government will conduct a tax deed sale, where the property is sold to the highest bidder.
4. *New ownership*: The winning bidder receives a tax deed, which transfers ownership of the property to the new owner.
The SURPLUS
A Tax Deed sale surplus, also known as overbid or excess funds, is created when a property is sold at a tax deed sale for more than the amount owed in back taxes, fees, and costs. When a property owner fails to pay their property taxes, the county government creates a tax lien on the property.
If the taxes remain unpaid, the county government will auction off the property at a tax deed sale to recover the owed taxes, fees, and costs.
If the highest bid exceeds the amount owed in back taxes, fees, and costs, the excess amount is considered a Tax Deed surplus or overbid.
Disbursement of Surplus Funds
The surplus funds are typically held by the county government or a designated official. These funds are owed to the original property owner or their rightful heirs.
