Tax sales in Massachusetts are administered at the county level. When property taxes go unpaid, the county advertises the parcel for a public tax sale — as a tax deed auction, a tax lien certificate sale, or a sheriff sale, depending on local law. Winning bidders acquire either ownership or a lien that can earn interest or lead to ownership after a redemption period.
A property owner in Massachusetts falls behind on county property taxes, and interest and penalties accrue.
The county schedules a tax deed auction or a tax lien certificate sale and observes the statutory notice period.
The property or lien is advertised for public auction, usually at a minimum bid covering the arrears plus fees.
The highest bidder receives a deed or a lien certificate, subject to any applicable redemption period.
Investor Tip
Always confirm each county's specific tax sale rules, registration requirements, and redemption periods before bidding on a property in Massachusetts. Rules can differ significantly from one county to the next.
