New Hampshire Tax Sale Questions

Can investors even buy tax liens in New Hampshire?▾

In most towns, no. The municipality keeps the lien and, after two years, deeds the property to itself. Only a minority of towns that opted into the lien-transfer provisions sell transferable liens to third parties.

What interest does a New Hampshire redemption pay?▾

Redemption interest is 14% per annum on the recorded lien amount from the date the lien is executed, plus costs. A lien-transfer purchaser earns that same statutory rate.

How long is the New Hampshire redemption period?▾

Two years from the execution of the tax lien. If it isn't redeemed within that window, the tax collector executes a tax deed to the municipality or lien transferee.

What happens to leftover equity after the deed?▾

After the deed, the former owner has a statutory repurchase right, and the municipality must offer the property back — a process that, following Tyler v. Hennepin, routes surplus equity back to the former owner. It is a repurchase right, not classic redemption.
