LA caveats

THE SYSTEM CHANGED ON 2026-01-01 AND MOST WRITING ABOUT LOUISIANA IS NOW WRONG. Acts 774 and 557 of 2024 replaced the ownership bid-down sale with a tax lien certificate auction. 'Tax sale title' is repealed, no adjudicated property is created after that date, and a bidder no longer ends up owning an undivided percentage of a house. Any guide, course or comparable sale predating 2026 describes the old mechanism.
THE RATE IS BID DOWN, AND THIS ROW ENCODES THE FLOOR. Bidding opens at 1% per month, moves in tenths of a percent, and no bid may reduce it below 0.7% per month. The tier is 8.4% a year — the floor, annualised — so a realised certificate pays between that and 12%. Modelling the 12% opening rate would repeat the Illinois error of quoting a ceiling as an expectation.
A FLAT 5% PENALTY IS ALSO DUE ON REDEMPTION and is not in the tier, which holds one number. It is not bid down, so it accrues whatever the auction does to the rate.
NO OBSERVED CLEARING DATA EXISTS. The market is months old; there is no Louisiana equivalent of the Cook County catalogue behind the Illinois entry. The floor makes the downside knowable, not the expectation. Treat the realised rate as unknown within 8.4%-12% until sales are recorded.
Redemption is three years from recordation, or eighteen months for blighted or abandoned property. The shorter period began as a New Orleans rule and was extended by constitutional amendment; confirm it applies in the parish in question. The period is peremptive but can be extended where required notice was not given, so a defective notice keeps the owner's right alive.

Parcels — ranked by assessed value over opening bid

No parcels published yet

The county has announced 125 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 26, 2026.

Spread is not profit.It compares the opening bid to the county's assessed value, which is not market value — La. Const. art. VII, § 18: land is assessed at 10% of fair market value, improvements for residential purposes at 10%, and other property at 15%. This entry uses the 10% residential rate. Open a parcel to run the full max-bid analysis, which accounts for the assessment ratio, surviving liens, quiet title, and holding costs.
