How Smith County tax sales work

Smith County tax sales are held on the first Tuesday of the month by the sheriff or a constable, online at smith.texas.sheriffsaleauctions.com. They produce a redeemable deed under Tex. Tax Code §34.21, so the buyer's ownership is subject to the former owner's right to buy the property back.

The former owner can redeem for 180 days after the deed is filed for most property, and for 2 years for homesteads, agricultural land and mineral interests. The redemption premium is up to 25% for most property; for homesteads and agricultural land it is 25% in the first year and 50% in the second.
