PROPERTY REDEMPTION

 

Property sold at tax certificate sale for delinquent taxes may be redeemed within one year from the issuance of Certificate of Purchase as follows:

 

  1. Please advise the Collector's office at least 24 hours prior to the date you will be redeeming. We recommend scheduling an appointment and allowing twenty minutes to process;

     
  2. Pay the Collector the amount of Tax, Penalties, and costs as shown on the Certificate of Purchase plus 10% annual interest on that total amount;

     
  3. Pay the Collector the amount of any subsequent years' taxes paid, if applicable, plus 8% annual interest; and

     
  4. Pay Collector a redemption charge of twenty-five cents.

     

Property may be redeemed by the owner of record, or on the owner's behalf.

 

The Collector's office notifies the Certificate of Purchase holder when the property has been redeemed. The Certificate of Purchase must be surrendered to the Collector before the holder will be reimbursed the bid amount plus interest. The Collector will provide a check to the Certificate of Purchase holder for the redeemed amount less the twenty-five cents redemption fee.

 

A Certificate of Redemption will be issued to the owner of record when property is redeemed. The Certificate of Purchase holder will receive a copy of the Certificate of Redemption.
