Alabama government auctions & property

Tax-deed and tax-lien sales, land-bank and adjudicated property, surplus vehicles and equipment — from Alabama state, county and city agencies, linked to the official source to bid.

Alabama counties choose between two enforcement methods: a tax lien auction, where investors bid down the interest rate on the delinquent taxes, and the older tax sale, which conveys a redeemable tax certificate. Mobile County, for example, runs an online tax lien auction each spring.

How government auctions work in Alabama

Hybrid (varies by county)

Alabama counties choose between two enforcement methods: a tax lien auction, where investors bid down the interest rate on the delinquent taxes, and the older tax sale, which conveys a redeemable tax certificate. Mobile County, for example, runs an online tax lien auction each spring.

Redemption period
Under either method the owner commonly has three years to redeem, and occupied property may carry redemption rights beyond that under Alabama case law — verify the county's current procedure in the notice.
Interest or penalty
Tax lien auctions start at a 12% annual rate and are bid down; certificates from a traditional tax sale commonly earn 12% on the taxes paid.

Who sells in Alabama

  • County revenue commissioner tax lien auctions (for example Mobile County)
  • County tax sales conveying redeemable tax certificates
  • Alabama Surplus Property Division (ADECA) for state vehicles and equipment
  • Sheriff's office judicial and execution sales
  • Federal sellers such as GSA Auctions and the U.S. Marshals

How it works for a first-time buyer

Alabama tax lien auctions are advertised by the county revenue commissioner, and the larger counties run them online through a vendor portal, while smaller counties still sell in person at the courthouse. Register before the sale, expect to fund the winning bid the same day, and understand that a lien buyer earns interest rather than title. Before bidding, check whether the parcel is owner-occupied, because Alabama's possession-based redemption rules can extend the owner's rights, and confirm the county's current method in the official notice.

General information, not legal advice — the official sale notice controls. Last reviewed September 2026.

Alabama auction FAQ

Is Alabama a tax lien or tax deed state?

Alabama is best described as a hybrid: since 2018 each county may hold a tax lien auction (bidding down interest from 12%) or keep the traditional tax sale that conveys a redeemable certificate. Check which method your county uses in its sale notice.

How long is the redemption period in Alabama?

Three years is the commonly cited administrative redemption period, and owners who remain in possession may have additional judicial redemption rights. Treat the three-year figure as a minimum, not a guarantee of clear title.

Where does the State of Alabama sell surplus vehicles and equipment?

State agencies route retired vehicles and equipment through the ADECA Surplus Property Division, which holds periodic public sales, while cities and counties sell independently or through online auction vendors.
