Oklahoma is currently a deed state. It was formerly a tax lien state that also conducted tax deed sales until July, 2008 when new legislation went into effect amending Title 68, O.S. Section 3105. This amendment eliminated the annual October Certificate Tax Lien Sale, which was previously held on the first Monday in October. Now instead of selling the delinquent property taxes to investors the county puts a lien on the property and resale statutes now govern properties that remain delinquent and unpaid for three (3) years or more. The resale auction is held annually on the second Monday of June.



The resale is actually a tax deed sale where the deed to the property is sold to the highest bidder and the minimum bid starts at 2/3 of the assessed value of the property or the amount due plus taxes and penalties, whichever is less.



Oklahoma County, the largest county in Oklahoma, has detailed tax sale information on its website as well as the ability to look up property assessments online. Detailed instructions for bidding are found on the Oklahoma County treasurer’s website at https://www.oklahomacounty.org/treasurer/.



Tulsa County also has extensive information about tax sales including all the information that you need to register, do your due diligence, and bid at the tax sale, on their website at http://www.treasurer.tulsacounty.org/.



Although Canadian County still has tax lien sale information on the county treasurer’s website, the information is old (from 2005) as is probably no longer valid in light of the new 2008 law.



See each county treasurer’s web page for information on the tax resale. You can get links to each county’s web page by clicking on the heading “Oklahoma” at the top of this section. That will take you to the NACO.org web page for Oklahoma and from there you click on links to all of the counties and you can get a map showing all the counties in Oklahoma. Or you can use this site and do a state search and click on the county you are interested in to find a link to the county treasurer’s web page.
