Common Deal Types in Miami-Dade County
How Tax Delinquent Property Sales Work in Florida
Florida is a tax-certificate state with a follow-on tax-deed sale. When property taxes go unpaid, the county tax collector holds an annual tax-certificate auction (typically online, on or before June 1) where investors bid down the interest rate they're willing to accept. The certificate buyer pays the delinquent tax and is repaid by the property owner — at the bid-down rate — when the owner redeems. After two years, if still unredeemed, the certificate holder can apply for a tax deed, which triggers a separate public auction of the property itself.
Bidding & Auctions
Tax-certificate auctions in most Florida counties are conducted online (Lien Hub, Realauction, or county-run platforms). Bidding starts at 18% interest and bidders compete by accepting lower rates — sometimes down to 0.25% on attractive parcels. A deposit is required to register. Tax-deed auctions, which happen later if a certificate is not redeemed, are also typically online and use ascending-bid format starting at the certificate cost plus accumulated interest, application fees, and statutory minimums.
Redemption & Penalties
A property owner can redeem at any time before a tax deed is issued by paying the certificate face value plus the bid-down interest rate. The 18% statutory cap means even at low bid rates, redemption returns at least 5% (the statutory minimum return). After 2 years, the certificate holder may force a tax deed sale; if no one outbids the certificate holder at that sale, they receive the deed. If outbid, they collect the certificate amount plus interest from auction proceeds.
See Florida Statutes, Chapter 197.
Miami-Dade County Tax Sale Process
Florida uses a tax certificate system. Certificates are sold annually on delinquent taxes. After 2 years, certificate holders can apply for a tax deed. Miami-Dade has the largest volume of tax certificates in Florida.

2 years from certificate sale date
Property owners can redeem by paying all delinquent taxes plus interest (5-18% annually). After 2 years, certificate holders can force a tax deed sale.
Strike-Off Properties

Challenges to Expect

Frequently Asked Questions
How do tax deed sales work in Miami-Dade County?
Florida uses a tax certificate system. When property taxes go unpaid, the county sells tax certificates at auction. After 2 years, certificate holders can apply for a tax deed. The property is then auctioned at a tax deed sale where the opening bid includes all back taxes, costs, and fees.
Is heir property common in Miami-Dade?
Yes. Neighborhoods like Liberty City, Overtown, Little Haiti, and Opa-locka have high concentrations of heir property from families who purchased homes in the 1950s-70s. Gentrification pressure makes these properties valuable curative title targets.
What data does LienSuite provide for Miami-Dade?
LienSuite tracks tax delinquent properties in Miami-Dade County including owner information, tax amounts owed, property values, and heir/deceased indicators. Our data is sourced from the Miami-Dade Property Appraiser and Tax Collector.
When does Florida hold its tax certificate sale?
Florida tax-certificate sales are held annually on or before June 1 in each county. Most counties conduct the sale online over a 1-2 week window in late May or early June.
What's the difference between a tax certificate and a tax deed in Florida?
A tax certificate is a lien on the property — you earn interest until the owner redeems. A tax deed transfers ownership of the property itself. Florida investors must hold a certificate at least 2 years before they can apply for a tax deed sale.
What return can I expect on a Florida tax certificate?
Bidding starts at 18% and is bid down. Florida law guarantees a 5% minimum return at redemption, regardless of how low the winning bid was — except for certificates bid at 0%, which earn no interest but are still recovered at face value.
How do I find Florida tax deed properties going to auction?
Each county tax collector maintains a list of properties scheduled for tax deed sale, typically published 30 days before the auction. Properties have already been through 2+ years of unpaid certificates, making them well-aged distress.
