What it does

At the annual tax sale held by the county treasurer under Code chapter 446, parcels on which taxes are delinquent are offered at public sale, unless the parcel is subject to a pending action. The person who offers to pay the total amount due for the smallest percentage of the parcel is the purchaser. If two or more persons have placed an equal bid and the bids are the smallest percentage offered, the county treasurer shall use a random selection process to select the bidder to whom a certificate of purchase will be issued. The percentage that may be designated by any purchaser under current law shall not be less than percent. This bill changes that percentage to percent. The bill applies to tax sales held on or after July 1, 2023.
