Live auction data for all Maryland counties. Interest rates up to 12%, 2-year redemption periods. Sorted by auction date so you never miss a sale.
Explore Maryland →Maryland is a tax lien certificate state. When a property owner fails to pay property taxes, the county auctions off the tax lien — not the property itself. Investors purchase the lien, paying the delinquent taxes, and earn interest while the owner has up to 2 years to redeem by paying the investor back plus interest. Interest rates vary by county (8%–12%). If the owner fails to redeem, the lienholder may foreclose and acquire the property.
