How Lee County conducts tax deed auctions

Lee County tax deed auctions are conducted online at lee.realtaxdeed.com, the dedicated RealAuction subdomain operated under the supervision of the Lee County Clerk of Court. The platform is part of the Grant Street Group RealAuction network used by most Florida counties.

Auctions in Lee are typically scheduled on a recurring monthly cadence. Individual case schedules — the specific dates and times each property is offered — are published on the county portal in advance of each sale. Bidders register on the platform, post the required deposit (typically 5% of the maximum intended bid), and bid live during the auction window.

Florida's two-stage process applies: properties reach a Lee tax deed sale only after the certificate stage has passed without redemption (generally at least two years of unpaid taxes). The opening bid reflects the unpaid taxes, certificate fees, and any statutory minimum.
