Tax Sale Overview:


If Denver City and county, Colorado is unable to collect real estate property taxes they are also unable to provide important government services like police protection, public schooling and medical services.

Unpaid property taxes create a serious cashflow problem for Denver City and county, Colorado.

Property taxes that are delinquent are added to any previously uncollected taxes on a parcel of Denver City and county. Parcels whose taxes are subject to sale will be advertised in a Denver City and county newspaper of general circulation. They are listed by sequence number. Parcels fall into 1 of 2 groups. Each group is sorted by parcel number.

The advertisement appears about three to six weeks before the Denver City and county tax sale auction and is also posted on the Internet.

To solve this problem Denver City and county, Colorado allows investors to pay off these taxes. In exchange the investor receives the Denver City and county, Colorado lien for taxes. A tax lien is simply a claim for delinquent taxes.

Why would investors do this?

Well, depending on Colorado laws and competition, savvy Denver City and county tax sale investors can realize high-yielding returns with Colorado tax lien certificates and/or purchase real estate for a fraction of its true market value with Colorado tax deeds.
