How Tax Delinquent Property Sales Work in Alabama

Alabama is a hybrid state. Since Act 2018-577, counties may elect either the traditional tax-deed sale or a tax-lien certificate auction, and most active counties now run tax-lien auctions. In a lien-auction county the buyer receives a tax lien certificate — a lien that earns interest, not title. In the older tax-deed track the buyer gets a certificate of purchase that ripens into a tax deed after 3 years, though title stays subject to the owner's redemption rights and is often only possessory or clouded until a quiet-title action. Lien auctions are held annually, no earlier than March 1 and no later than June 15, with the exact date set by each county. Many of the online sales run on GovEase.

Bidding & Auctions

In tax-lien auctions, bidding is bid-down interest: it starts at the 12% statutory maximum and descends in 1% increments toward 0%, with the lowest accepted rate winning the certificate. In the older tax-deed track, bidding runs the other way — an overbid (excess bid) above the taxes due, with that overbid held for the owner. Registration ahead of the sale is required, and GovEase hosts many county lien auctions online. Because counties choose their own track, confirm whether a given county runs a lien auction or a deed sale before you plan a bid.

Redemption & Penalties

The ordinary right of redemption runs 3 years from the sale date on both tracks; a redeemer pays the certificate amount plus 12% per annum on the minimum bid and any overbid. Alabama also has a separate equitable 'right of possession' redemption for owners who remained in possession, which can persist well beyond the 3-year window until the certificate holder ejects them or quiets title — the single biggest title risk in Alabama deals. A tax-lien certificate itself expires 10 years from issuance if no foreclosure action is brought.

Sale type: HybridHeld: annually, between March 1 and June 15 (lien-auction counties)Redemption: 3 years from the date of sale

See Ala. Code Title 40, Chapter 10 (Art. 1 tax-deed sales §§40-10-1 et seq.; Art. 7 tax-lien auctions §§40-10-180 to 40-10-200). Specific procedures vary by county — always verify with the local tax assessor/collector before bidding.

Does Alabama sell tax liens or tax deeds?

Both. Since Act 2018-577, each county elects either a tax-lien certificate auction or the older tax-deed sale, and most active counties now run tax-lien auctions.

What interest rate does an Alabama tax lien earn?

12% per annum simple interest is the statutory maximum in lien auctions. Bidders bid that rate down in 1% increments, so the accrued rate is whatever the winning bid set.

How long is the redemption period in Alabama?

The ordinary right of redemption is 3 years from the date of sale on both tracks. But an owner who remained in possession may hold a separate equitable redemption right that can last much longer.

Why is Alabama tax-deed title considered risky?

The equitable 'right of possession' redemption for an owner who never left the property can defeat a quiet-title action years after the 3-year window, so title usually requires ejectment plus quiet title before it is marketable.
