Registration and deposit

Not published by Garza County. Texas Tax Code Sec. 34.015 requires a bidder to present the officer conducting the sale a written statement from the county tax assessor-collector showing no delinquent property taxes are owed. Request that statement from the Garza County Tax Assessor at 806-495-4448 before the sale. No county bidder-registration form or instructions were found online.

Sale format and venue
No county-specific redeemable tax deed sale information exists online. Every page on the Garza County site was checked (sitemap has 54 pages) and none mentions a tax sale, delinquent tax sale, sheriff's sale, struck-off property, or resale. The Tax Assessor page carries only contacts, an online payment link, and tax rate worksheets. The Sheriff's Office page carries no sale notices. Garza County does not appear on the McCreary Veselka Bragg & Allen upcoming Texas tax sale list, and it is absent from the 149 Texas counties in the Linebarger Goggan Blair & Sampson tax sale county list, so neither of the two large delinquent-tax firms that publish sale lists covers this county. No online auction platform was verified: the RealAuction subdomains for both realforeclose.com and sheriffsaleauctions.com resolve to the RealAuction corporate site rather than a Garza County auction, and GovEase has no Garza County page. Treat this as an in-person sale at the courthouse until the county confirms otherwise. The only sale notices the county posts are the County Clerk's Notice of Foreclosure Sales page, which currently lists substitute trustee (contract lien) sales for April 7, May 5, July 7, and August 4, 2026, not tax sales. A 2017 Commissioners' Court designation recorded under Texas Property Code Sec. 51.002(a) places foreclosure sales at the foyer of the first floor of the courthouse, 300 West Main Street, Post; that designation covers contract-lien foreclosures and the county has published no separate tax sale area designation. Confirm the sale date, location, and bidder statement directly with the Garza County Tax Assessor (806-495-4448) and the Sheriff's Office (806-495-3595).

Garza County tax sale list and auction calendar

For Garza 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. If the parcels on this list are vacant land rather than houses, what buying land at a tax sale hands you is the place to start.

  1. Get the advertised list

    A county sale-list URL is still being verified. Use the office and platform details on this page before relying on a copied list.
  2. Register to bid

    Not published by Garza County. Full requirements are in the sale card above.
  3. Sale day

    Garza County publishes no tax sale calendar or sale notice. The auction platform is still being verified. Confirm the next sale date and registration window with the county before you bid.
  4. Confirm with the office

    If the list, platform, and notice disagree, use Garza County Sheriff's Office as the source to confirm which parcels are actually offered.

Before you bid in Garza County

  1. Start with the live sale list

    The county sale-list URL is still being verified. Use the county office contacts below and confirm the advertised parcels directly before you price a bid.
  2. Confirm registration and deposit

    Not published by Garza County. Texas Tax Code Sec. 34.015 requires a bidder to present the officer conducting the sale a written statement from the county tax assessor-collector showing no delinquent property taxes are owed. Request that statement from the Garza County Tax Assessor at 806-495-4448 before the sale. No county bidder-registration form or instructions were found online.

  3. Check the state rules that change the bid

    Read the Texas due-diligence checklist before bidding. Redemption, liens that survive a tax deed, title cleanup, and payment deadlines can change what a parcel is worth. Which liens survive is state law, so read what survives a tax deed in Texas before you price the title work.
  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

Texas has no over-the-counter certificate list. Parcels that draw no sufficient bid are struck off to the taxing unit that requested the order of sale, and that unit may resell them at any time by public or private sale. A public resale requested through the sheriff or constable may be sold for any amount. A private sale generally may not go below the lesser of the market value stated in the judgment or the total judgments against the property, unless every taxing unit entitled to proceeds consents. Ask the county or its delinquent-tax law firm for the current struck-off inventory.

Texas rules

Redemption
The redemption clock runs from the date the purchaser's deed is filed for record, not from the sale date. Property that was the owner's residence homestead or was land designated for agricultural use when the suit or the warrant application was filed, and any mineral interest, may be redeemed on or before the second anniversary of that filing. Every other property may be redeemed only through the 180th day after the deed is filed. When a parcel is struck off to a taxing unit instead, the period runs from the date the taxing unit's deed is filed for record. The former owner has no right to use, possess, or collect rent from the property while the redemption right runs, and the right of redemption cannot be sold or transferred: any instrument purporting to transfer it is void.
Deed deposit
The Tax Code sets no statewide deposit and no buyer premium. Section 34.01 directs the officer to conduct the sale the way similar property is sold under execution, so payment terms are set locally by the officer who runs the sale. Most Texas counties collect the full bid in cash or by cashier's check on the day of the sale. Confirm the terms with the county before you bid.
Homestead deeds
Texas sets no separate opening bid for a homestead. What changes on a homestead parcel is the exit: a residence homestead, land designated for agricultural use when the suit or warrant application was filed, and a mineral interest all carry a two-year redemption right instead of 180 days, and the premium the owner pays can reach 50 percent in the second year. Price a homestead parcel for that longer clock.
Surplus proceeds
The officer pays any excess proceeds to the clerk of the court that issued the order of sale. The clerk holds the excess for two years after the sale and notifies the former owner when the amount exceeds $25. A claim must be filed before the second anniversary of the sale. The court pays established claims in statutory priority: a purchaser at a sale later adjudged void, taxing units for post-judgment or omitted taxes, other lienholders, taxing units for unsatisfied judgment amounts, and then the former owner. Anything unclaimed is distributed to the taxing units.
Governing statute
Tex. Tax Code Chapter 34

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.
