LITTLE ROCK – A public auction for the sale of tax delinquent land in Howard County will be held Thursday, June 2, at 2 p.m. at the Howard County Courthouse, according to John Thurston, Arkansas Commissioner of State Lands. Registration will begin at 1:30 p.m.
The Commissioner of State Lands offers an online Catalog of Tax Delinquent Lands, which contains the current statutes governing the sales, auction dates, times, location and other pertinent information regarding parcels being offered. The catalog can be found on the Commissioner’s website at www.cosl.org, providing current information resources about each parcel.
“Bidding begins at the amount of taxes and fees that are due on the property,” Thurston said. “Owners of delinquent parcels should remember that they have only 10 business days to redeem their property if it sells at auction.”
Delinquent property owners may call the office at 501-324-9422 to request a Petition to Redeem, or they may look up the delinquent parcel on the COSL website and print it from there.
