Hill County, Texas Government Auctions

Texas is a redeemable deed state

Texas counties sell tax-foreclosed property on the first Tuesday of the month through the sheriff or constable, and the buyer's deed remains subject to a redemption right with a steep premium. Unsold parcels are 'struck off' and resold later.

Redemption period

Owners have two years to redeem homestead and agricultural property and six months for other property, running from the date the deed is recorded.

Interest or penalty

Redemption requires paying the buyer a 25% premium in the first year and 50% in the second year for homestead or agricultural property (25% for the six-month period on other property).
