Redemption From Tax Sale - Interest On Surplus Now 5%, Not 10%
February 02, 2018
In 2010, I posted Indiana Tax Sales, Part II: Redemption, which discussed how parties can redeem real estate from a tax sale. Lenders who lose mortgaged property at a tax sale have the ability to redeem, and one of the issues always is amount of money needed to do so. My prior post includes a discussion of the amounts needed to redeem. One of the elements is interest on any surplus. The purpose of today's post is advise that, as of July 1, 2014, the per annum interest redeemers must pay on the tax sale surplus is 5%. Previously, the amount was 10%. So, it's now less expensive to redeem.
To review the entire Indiana statutory provision applicable to the amount of money required for redemption, click on Ind. Code 6-1.1-25-2.
