How Tax Delinquent Property Sales Work in Louisiana
Louisiana overhauled its system effective January 1, 2026. Under Act 774, which implements a 2024 constitutional amendment, the state converted from the old tax-sale-certificate model to a tax-lien-certificate system. At each parish's annual sale — historically held in spring or early summer — investors now buy a tax lien certificate that secures repayment of the taxes, interest, and costs, rather than the fractional ownership interest the old regime conveyed. The lien is not ownership; if the property is not redeemed within the statutory window, the holder must pursue a judicial foreclosure to recover, and the former automatic path to full title is gone. Because the state is mid-transition, individual parishes are still adopting their procedures, so investors should confirm each parish's adopted rules and cadence. Sales run online in Orleans and many other parishes through platforms such as CivicSource and Bid4Assets; legacy pre-2026 sales still resolve under the prior rules.
Bidding & Auctions
Under the post-2026 rules, Louisiana uses a bid-down-interest format. Bidding starts at the statutory maximum of 1% per month and competitors bid the monthly rate down in 0.1% increments, to a floor of 0.7% per month; the lowest accepted rate wins the certificate. This replaces the previous mechanic of bidding down a percentage of ownership in the property. Sales are conducted per parish, with Orleans and many others running online through CivicSource or Bid4Assets. Because procedures are still being adopted parish-by-parish under the new law, registration requirements and exact cadence should be confirmed with the parish tax collector or sheriff before the sale.
Redemption & Penalties
The redemptive period is three years from the recordation of the tax lien certificate for most property, shortened to 18 months for property that is blighted or abandoned. During that window the owner redeems by paying the lien amount plus a 5% penalty and the monthly interest set at auction — a maximum of 1% per month (12% per year), non-compounding, or the lower rate the winning bidder accepted. If the property is not redeemed, the certificate holder must bring a judicial foreclosure rather than automatically acquiring title. An unredeemed lien must be enforced within a seven-year statute of limitations measured from recordation, after which it can be extinguished.
See Louisiana Revised Statutes 47:2151 et seq. (as amended by Act 774 of 2024). Specific procedures vary by county — always verify with the local tax assessor/collector before bidding.

Did Louisiana change its tax sale rules?▾
Yes. Effective January 1, 2026, Act 774 converted Louisiana from a tax-sale-certificate state to a tax-lien-certificate state. Investors now buy a lien securing repayment rather than a fractional ownership interest, and must judicially foreclose if the lien is not redeemed. Legacy pre-2026 sales still resolve under the old rules.
How does bidding work in Louisiana now?▾
Investors bid down the monthly interest rate. Bidding opens at the 1%-per-month maximum and descends in 0.1% increments to a 0.7%-per-month floor; the lowest accepted rate wins the certificate.
What is the redemption period in Louisiana?▾
Three years from the date the tax lien certificate is recorded for most property, or 18 months for blighted or abandoned property. To redeem, the owner pays the lien amount plus a 5% penalty and the monthly interest set at the auction.
What return can a Louisiana tax lien earn?▾
Up to 1% per month (12% per year), non-compounding, plus a 5% penalty assessed when the lien is sold. The monthly rate is bid down at auction to as low as 0.7% per month, so the penalty provides a meaningful floor on short redemptions.
