How Cass County sells delinquent taxes

From lien to deed

Indiana holds no general public tax deed auction. Once the redemption period runs out, the certificate holder files a verified petition in the same court that entered the judgment of sale, and the court directs the county auditor to issue the deed. That petition must be filed no later than three months after the redemption period expires, or the purchaser's lien terminates. One narrow exception exists: real property a county, city, or town executive has certified as vacant or abandoned is auctioned separately, and there the county auditor deeds fee simple title straight to the highest bidder with no right of redemption.

Cass County 2026 Notice of Real Property Tax Sale (certified parcel list with minimum bids)
When it runs
Early to mid September at 10:00 a.m. local time. The county's 2026 Notice of Real Property Tax Sale reads "Beginning 10:00 AM Local Time, September 11, 2026" and "Such sale will be held on 09/11/2026 at the Commissioners' Meeting Room and that sale will continue until all tracts and real property have been offered for sale." The prior year's sale ran Thursday, September 4, 2025.
Registration and deposit

Bidders register online with SRI Incorporated at sriservices.com. The county notice states: "If you are interested in bidding on the tax sale for an Indiana county, you may register online at https://sriservices.com/. This registration is good for all counties that SRI services. You need to register only once for all counties." Bring the completed registration form and a W-9 to the sale, both printable from the registration site. The notice asks bidders to arrive at least 30 minutes before the 10:00 a.m. start to receive a bid number, and allows registration the morning of the sale for anyone without internet access.

Sale format and venue
Cass County sells tax lien certificates under IC 6-1.1-24, and the sale is held live at the courthouse rather than online. The 2026 notice sets it in the Commissioners' Meeting Room at 200 Court Park in Logansport. The notice does reserve an online fallback: "At the discretion of local officials, the tax sale may switch to an online format. If those measures are taking place, the public auction will be conducted as an electronic sale under IC 6-1.1-24-2 (b) 10 at www.zeusauction.com commencing on the same date/time listed above. All location updates will be posted at www.sriservices.com prior to the tax sale." Confirm the format with the Treasurer or Auditor before the sale date, because no online sale is confirmed for this county. Property is not sold below the sum of delinquent taxes and special assessments, current-year taxes and assessments, all penalties, $40 for postage and publication, other county costs attributable to the sale, and any unpaid costs from a prior tax sale. The Auditor and Treasurer apply to the Cass County Superior 1 Court on or after 08/17/2026 for the judgment and order of sale, and they reserve the right to pull any parcel listed in error. For certificates sold at the 2026 sale, the notice states the redemption period expires Monday, September 13, 2027; for certificates struck to the county, redemption may expire Monday, January 11, 2027. The Auditor issues the tax deed after the post-sale court petition process. Since a change in state law the sale notice runs only once in newspapers, and the county directs bidders to its own website for subsequent notices. One caution: the county's Sheriff/Tax Sales resource link points to a properties.sriservices.com address that no longer resolves, so use the county's posted notice PDF or sriservices.com for the current list.

For Cass County tax sale 2026 searches, use the county-run sources below rather than a copied parcel list, and confirm the parcel, registration cutoff, deposit, and payment deadline against the county before you bid.

  1. Get the advertised list

    Use Cass County 2026 Notice of Real Property Tax Sale (certified parcel list with minimum bids) for the current advertised parcels, then recheck it before the auction.

    Bidders register online with SRI Incorporated at sriservices.com. Full requirements are in the sale card above.

  3. Sale day

    Beginning 10:00 AM Local Time, September 11, 2026. The sale is live and in person; there is no online bidding platform. Confirm the venue and hour with the county office before you go.

  4. Confirm with the office

    If the list, platform, and notice disagree, use Cass County Treasurer's Office, jointly with the Cass County Auditor's Office, with the sale administered under contract by SRI Incorporated as the source to confirm which parcels are actually offered.

Before you bid in Cass County

  1. Start with the live sale list

    Pull the current advertised parcels from Cass County 2026 Notice of Real Property Tax Sale (certified parcel list with minimum bids). Lists can change before the sale, so recheck the county source before you price a parcel.

  2. Confirm registration and deposit

    Bidders register online with SRI Incorporated at sriservices.com. The county notice states: "If you are interested in bidding on the tax sale for an Indiana county, you may register online at https://sriservices.com/. This registration is good for all counties that SRI services. You need to register only once for all counties." Bring the completed registration form and a W-9 to the sale, both printable from the registration site. The notice asks bidders to arrive at least 30 minutes before the 10:00 a.m. start to receive a bid number, and allows registration the morning of the sale for anyone without internet access.

  3. Check the state rules that change the bid

    Read the Indiana due-diligence checklist before bidding. Redemption, liens that survive a tax deed, title cleanup, and payment deadlines can change what a parcel is worth.

  4. Set a walk-away number

    Work out what the parcel is actually worth with the rural land value estimator, then turn it into a ceiling with the tax deed max-bid calculator.

Over-the-counter (leftover) purchases

Parcels that draw no bid at the treasurer's tax sale pass to the county executive, which acquires a lien for the minimum sale price and receives a tax sale certificate. The county executive may then adopt a resolution and offer those certificates at a separate advertised public sale, often called the commissioners' certificate sale, priced below the minimum bid that failed at the tax sale. Notice runs once a week for three consecutive weeks with the final advertisement at least 30 days before the sale. This is a scheduled sale rather than a walk-in list, and redemption on a certificate bought this way is 120 days. Check the county auditor page for the next commissioners' certificate sale date.

Indiana rules

Max interest rate
15% of the amount paid maximum, as a flat statutory penalty
Minimum return
10% statutory penalty at redemption
Redemption
The standard period is one year after the date of the treasurer's tax sale. Several tracks run 120 days instead: a certificate bought at the county executive's certificate sale, a lien the county executive holds that was never sold on, a sale to a purchasing agency qualified under IC 36-7-17 or IC 36-7-17.1, a certificate the county executive assigns to another political subdivision, and a parcel that was not offered at the tax sale at all. Property on the county auditor's vacant and abandoned list carries no right of redemption after its sale. A county treasurer may also extend redemption by agreement with the owner, in which case the extended period ends one year after the date of that agreement.
Surplus proceeds
The treasurer applies the payment first to the taxes, assessments, penalties, and costs in the minimum bid, then to other delinquent property taxes, then deposits the remainder in a tax sale surplus fund. The owner of record at the time the parcel was certified for sale, or the purchaser on a redemption, may file a verified claim against that fund. Unclaimed surplus transfers to the county general fund three years after it was received.
Governing statute
IC 6-1.1-24

A tax deed does not convey marketable title. Most buyers file a quiet title action before they can resell or insure the property. See the due diligence guide.
