State guide

How government auctions work in Minnesota

Tax deed state

Minnesota parcels forfeit to the state after the redemption period expires, and county auditors then sell tax-forfeited land at public auction or over the counter. No liens are sold to investors.

Redemption period
Owners have a statutory redemption period, commonly three years from the judgment, before forfeiture; after forfeiture the county sells the land free of redemption.
Interest or penalty
Not applicable — buyers purchase forfeited land from the county, and the state now must return excess proceeds to former owners.

Who sells in Minnesota

  • County auditor tax-forfeited land sales
  • Hennepin County and other land bank dispositions
  • Minnesota MNBid state surplus auctions
  • Minnesota DNR land sales
  • Federal sellers such as GSA Auctions

How it works for a first-time buyer

Each county auditor posts a list of tax-forfeited parcels with appraised values that serve as minimum bids, holds a public auction, and offers unsold parcels over the counter at the appraised price afterward. Sales may be in person or online depending on the county, and buyers typically pay a deposit plus recording fees and can sometimes finance through a contract with the county. The state issues the deed after full payment. Verify wetlands, easements and whether the parcel is classified as non-conservation, which affects saleability.

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

Minnesota auction FAQ

Is Minnesota a tax lien or tax deed state?

Minnesota is a tax deed state. Delinquent parcels forfeit to the state and counties sell them; there are no lien certificate sales.

How long is the redemption period in Minnesota?

Commonly three years after the tax judgment before forfeiture, with shorter periods for some property types. Once forfeited and sold, no redemption applies.

Where does Minnesota sell surplus state property?

The Department of Administration's MNBid site auctions state vehicles, equipment and electronics online, with pickup at the listed agency location.
