If Garfield 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 Garfield county, Colorado.

Parcels whose taxes are subject to sale will be advertised in a Garfield 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.
