Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Tax Sale?

A Tax Sale is the public auction of any real property with taxes that have been delinquent for four years from the final tax payment deadline (five years including the date of the sale).

Where can I find a list of properties up for sale?

The Tax Sale listing is published on our website and in the Standard Examiner four weeks before the sale and is updated weekly. See the List of Properties For Sale.

Weber County typically holds its annual Tax Sale the Thursday before Memorial Day. The date is usually finalized in January.

Can a property be redeemed before the sale?

Delinquent property may be redeemed at any time prior to the final Tax Sale by paying all delinquent taxes, interest, penalties, and administrative costs.

Properties redeemed within three weeks of the sale must be paid in cash or bank-certified funds through the County Treasurer. Partial payments do not redeem a property.

How do I bid on a property at the Tax Sale?

Register the morning of the sale by submitting a Bidder Registration Form. You must appear in person and will be issued a bidder number.

If I win a bid, what kind of title do I receive?

Properties are conveyed by tax deed. A tax deed is not a warranty deed, and the county makes no guarantees regarding title or property condition. Buyers assume all risks.

Consult a real estate attorney regarding liens or other claims.

What forms of payment are accepted?

Full payment must be made in cash or bank-certified funds. No financing is available through the county.

Deposits and deadlines vary depending on the sale amount.

When will I receive the deed?

A Tax Deed is mailed within 30 days after the sale is ratified by the County Commission.

What happens to properties not sold at the Tax Sale?

Unsold properties become county property unless recertified for a future sale. See the Unsold Properties page.

What happens if a property sells for more than the amount owed?

Excess funds typically go to the recorded owner before the sale. Unclaimed funds are transferred to the State Treasurer as unclaimed property.

Where can I find previous Tax Sale results?
Where can I find information on unclaimed excess funds?

Weber County does not maintain a compiled list of excess funds. You can review tax sale results and ownership history, then check for unclaimed funds at: mycash.utah.gov.
