How these sales work

Buying government property in Clay County

Alabama is a hybrid state

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.
