Liens that survive

Tax deed sale generally clears most private liens; federal liens and some post-sale assessments can survive. Resales may start at fraction of appraised value when prior sale failed — still AS IS with redemption rights for prior owner.

Quiet title

Often needed post-redemption for clean resale title in South Texas markets; title insurance underwriting is strict on tax deeds.

Verify before you bid

This record was compiled from the published sale list. Parcels are pulled, redeemed, and re-priced up to the moment of sale. Confirm the lot is still in the sale, and confirm the opening bid, directly with the county.

Target margin — 30%

Required profit as a share of ARV. 30% is a common floor for tax-sale flips.

How that number is built

Assessed $392,000 ÷ 1 assessment ratio. Texas requires appraisal at 100% of market value as of Jan 1 (Tex. Tax Code § 23.01).

If the owner redeems

Flat penalty

25%

You'd receive

$58,781

Window

730 days

A 25% flat penalty applies if the owner redeems. It is a penalty, not annual interest — the rate does not change with how early they redeem.

homestead and agricultural-use property (2 years); all other property is 180 days

Quoted elsewhere as 51% annualised — true only if they redeem on the last possible day and you immediately redeploy the capital. Treat the flat penalty as the real number.

Before you bid

Rehab is assumed to be $0. You cannot inspect these properties before bidding — budget for the worst plausible condition.
Surviving liens assumed $0. The 180-day vs 2-year window turns on the property's use at the time of sale, which the sale list does not state — treat any homestead-looking residential parcel as potentially 2-year.
