How Tax Sales Operate in Alaska
Under Alaska Stat. § 29.45.330, delinquent property taxes follow a precise statutory timeline. Understanding the difference between bidding on Tax Deed and purchasing over-the-counter is essential for investors.
Bidding & Auction Process
Auctions are conducted online via Public Surplus or in person by the Borough Finance Department / Tax Collector. Winning bidders are required to tender payment via wire transfer, certified check, or ACH within statutory deadlines.
Over-The-Counter Lands (Over-The-Counter Borough Foreclosure Sales)
In Alaska, unsold properties or tax lien certificates become available as Over-The-Counter Borough Foreclosure Sales. Buyers can purchase these parcels directly over-the-counter without attending an open outcry auction.
