Deposit rules

Pre-register on SRI with required W-9 and any deposit. Certified funds only for many redemption/payment steps. Confirm current Treasurer/Auditor bidder rules before sale day. Certificate stage does not convey deed.

Title risk

Liens that survive the sale

Certificate stage does not clear title. After a tax deed issues, most junior private liens are cut off; federal and some governmental liens can survive.

Quiet title

Tax deed issuance has statutory notice requirements; quiet title is still often used to make title insurable for resale.
