How Tax Sales Operate in Tennessee
Under Tenn. Code Ann. § 67-5-2501 et seq., delinquent property taxes follow a precise statutory timeline. Understanding the difference between bidding on Tax Deed (Redeemable) and purchasing over-the-counter is essential for investors.
Bidding & Auction Process
Auctions are conducted online via CivicSource / Chancery Court Steps or in person by the County Chancery Court / Clerk & Master. Winning bidders are required to tender payment via wire transfer, certified check, or ACH within statutory deadlines.
Over-The-Counter Lands (Chancery Court Over-the-Counter Sales)
In Tennessee, unsold properties or tax lien certificates become available as Chancery Court Over-the-Counter Sales. Buyers can purchase these parcels directly over-the-counter without attending an open outcry auction.
