New York Tax Sale Calendar

Quick answerNew York tax sale timing: County (or self-enforcing city/village) deed auctions after in rem foreclosure, scheduled by each tax district year-round; New York City's separate lien sale is held annually when authorized (the 2025 sale was June 3, 2025) What is sold: Tax deeds. Registration and deposits are due before the sale — in most counties, the day before — so the list posting date matters as much as the sale date.

Verified New York sale dates are added as counties publish their lists — members get them by text and email the moment they post. The sale rhythm below is from New York law.

Rate / penalty: n/a — under RPTL Article 11 the tax district holds and forecloses its own lien, so no lien certificate is sold to investors and no investor interest rate applies; delinquency interest owed to the tax district is at the RPTL § 924-a rate, never less than 12% per year. NYC lien-sale purchasers charge the City's delinquency rates plus a 5% surcharge (see notes)

Redemption: 2 years after the lien date by default under Article 11 (RPTL § 1110), extendable by local law to 3 or 4 years for residential or farm property, and shortened to 1 year for vacant and abandoned residential property (§ 1111-a); redemption ends at the in rem foreclosure judgment, after which the county resells the parcel with no further redemption
