North Dakota Tax Sale Questions
When is the North Dakota tax sale held?▾
The annual sale of tax-deeded land begins on the third Tuesday of November each year, held at the county auditor's office or the usual place for holding district court. Confirm the exact date and format with the specific county.
When does the owner's redemption right end in North Dakota?▾
Redemption runs until October 1 following the auditor's foreclosure notice, which is given on or before June 1. If taxes are unpaid by October 1, the county takes the tax deed and the redemption right ends.
Can I pay for a North Dakota parcel over time?▾
Yes. The county may accept all cash, or one-fourth down with the balance in equal annual installments over up to ten years. This installment option is unusual among tax-sale states and is set by the county.
Is there any redemption after the November sale?▾
No. Once the county's tax-deed sale conveys the property to a purchaser, there is no redemption for anyone. The only later exception is a possible 120-day federal (IRS) redemption if a federal tax lien had attached.
