How Tax Delinquent Property Sales Work in Mississippi
Mississippi is a tax-lien (tax-certificate) state. Each county holds an annual tax sale, commonly the last Monday of August, where investors buy a tax-sale certificate on parcels with delinquent taxes. The certificate is a lien, not title — the buyer pays the back taxes and is repaid, with a penalty and interest, when the owner redeems. The sale continues day-to-day until every parcel has been offered. If the owner does not redeem within the 2-year redemption period — and after the chancery clerk gives the required notices that redemption is about to expire — the certificate matures into a tax deed and the chancery clerk issues title to the holder. Because a matured tax deed depends on strict statutory notice, Mississippi tax-deed title often needs a quiet-title action before it is marketable.
Bidding & Auctions
Most Mississippi counties now run the sale online through GovEase, though some still sell in person at the courthouse. Bidding starts at the face amount — taxes, interest, fees, and penalties — and bidders bid the price up with an overbid; the highest bid wins. The overbid is a trap for yield: it earns the buyer no interest and is generally not returned when the owner redeems, so a large overbid dilutes your effective return. Registration ahead of the sale is required. Some counties have historically used an undivided-interest variant, so confirm the local mechanism before you bid.
Redemption & Penalties
The owner has 2 years from the sale to redeem, done through the chancery clerk. On redemption the owner pays the base taxes plus a 5% penalty (damages) on the taxes, plus 1.5% per month (18% per year) interest on the taxes and costs from the sale date, plus any subsequent taxes the holder paid. The overbid is excluded from what the purchaser recovers. If no one redeems within the 2-year window and the clerk's expiration-of-redemption notices are complete, the right to redeem ends and the certificate matures into a tax deed issued by the chancery clerk.
See Mississippi Code Annotated, Title 27, Chapters 41, 43, and 45. Specific procedures vary by county — always verify with the local tax assessor/collector before bidding.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often is the Hinds County list updated?▾
County release schedules vary. Some counties publish weekly or monthly; others publish quarterly or annually. We update the download after collecting a new official release from County Records. A list can be current for the county's release cycle without changing every day. Verify property and tax details with the county before acting.
What data fields are included?▾
Records carry property address, owner name, mailing address, assessed value, property type, and legal description, where the county publishes them. Before you pay we count out every field we have measured on this county’s file, and a field we have not measured is left out rather than estimated.
Is the download really free?▾
Not yet. We are validating the next publishable Hinds County list. Join the notification list and we will let you know when a verified sample is ready.
When is the Mississippi tax sale held?▾
Annually in late August, commonly the last Monday of August. The sale continues day-to-day until all delinquent parcels are offered. Most counties now run it online through GovEase.
What return does a Mississippi tax certificate earn?▾
On redemption the owner pays a 5% penalty (damages) on the taxes plus 1.5% per month — 18% per year — interest on the taxes and costs from the sale date. The overbid you pay above the taxes earns nothing and is generally not returned.
How long before I can get a tax deed in Mississippi?▾
Two years from the sale. If the owner does not redeem within that window and the chancery clerk completes the required expiration-of-redemption notices, the certificate matures and the clerk issues a tax deed.
Do I own the property once the certificate matures?▾
You receive a tax deed, but because it depends on strict statutory notice by the chancery clerk, defective notice is the most common reason a matured deed is later voided. Most investors quiet title before treating it as marketable.
