WY caveats

NO BIDDING. Wyoming allocates liens by random draw rather than auction — the certificate is taxes plus costs and the return does not depend on competition. Our own calendar records Uinta County's procedure as 'Random Selection'. A model that assumes premium or bid-down behaviour does not apply here.
A FURTHER 3% PENALTY IS EARNED IN THE FIRST YEAR, on top of the 15% per annum, and is not in the tier — one number cannot hold both. Year one is therefore better than modelled and years two to four are as modelled.
FOUR YEARS BEFORE A DEED, SIX BEFORE THE RIGHT LAPSES. The holder may apply for a tax deed only after four years from the sale and not more than six. Capital is committed for at least four years, the owner may redeem throughout, and a holder who sleeps past six loses the ability to take title at all.
Wyoming is the longest hold in this file. At 15% simple that is attractive on paper, but auctionToMarketableMonths is 54 and the money is illiquid throughout — compare against what else that capital could do over four and a half years rather than against a one-year lien state.
Assessment is by use, not county: 11.5% industrial, 9.5% everything else. This row uses 9.5%.
The 2025 homeowner exemption (W.S. 39-11-105(a)(xlvi), Enrolled Act No. 60) exempts 25% of fair market value on a single family residence and its improved land, capped at the first $1,000,000, first applying to tax year 2025; from tax year 2026 the claimant must actually reside there at least eight months of the year. Note this is an EXEMPTION, not a rate change — press reporting of an 8.3% owner-occupied rate described a floor amendment that did not survive into the enrolled act.

Parcels — ranked by assessed value over opening bid

No parcels published yet

The county has announced 208 parcels for this sale, but the parcel list itself has not been fetched yet — so there is nothing to rank here. Counties often publish it only days before the sale. Check back closer to Aug 21, 2026.

Spread is not profit.It compares the opening bid to the county's assessed value, which is not market value — W.S. 39-13-103: property used for industrial purposes is assessed at 11.5% of fair market value; all other property, real and personal, at 9.5%. Wyoming assesses by use, not by county. Open a parcel to run the full max-bid analysis, which accounts for the assessment ratio, surviving liens, quiet title, and holding costs.
