How Scott County tax deed sales work

Scott County tax deed sales are not run by the county itself. They are conducted statewide by the Arkansas Commissioner of State Lands at auction.cosl.org, which lists tax-forfeited properties from all 75 Arkansas counties on a single platform.

Each Arkansas county is included in a statewide rotation, typically with at least one public sale per year covering its tax-forfeited inventory. The exact Scott County sale date is published on the COSL calendar in advance. After the public auction, any unsold Scott County properties enter the COSL post-auction negotiated-sale inventory and remain available year-round.

Bidders register on auction.cosl.org, participate in live online auctions, and receive a limited warranty deed after winning. Outstanding liens may survive the sale; a quiet title action is commonly required before reselling.
