How Teton County sells delinquent taxes

No tax lien certificate sale

Idaho sells no tax lien certificate to investors. Under Idaho Code 63-1001 a delinquency has the force and effect of a sale to the county tax collector as grantee in trust for the county, so the county is the only party that ever holds the delinquency.

When it runs
Teton County publishes no tax deed sale calendar and no next sale date. The commissioners set each auction themselves once parcels have been deeded to the county, and Idaho Code 31-808 gives the board fourteen months from the tax deed to hold the public auction, advertised at least ten calendar days beforehand. Call the Treasurer at (208) 776-8250 or the Commissioners at (208) 776-8254 to ask whether a sale is currently scheduled.
Registration and deposit

No bidder registration form or deposit schedule is published. The board sets the terms of each sale, including the minimum bid covering delinquent taxes, interest and costs, and prints them in the published notice of sale. Contact the Treasurer or the Commissioners' office ahead of the auction date to get the terms and confirm what identification and funds to bring.

Sale format and venue
Idaho sells no tax lien certificates. Teton County takes title itself after three years of delinquency, and what an investor buys is the county reselling that land at a public auction run by the board of county commissioners. The county publishes no tax-deed property list online; parcels are advertised only in the legal notices of the Teton Valley News. No online auction platform is used, so bidding is done in person at the public auction, with the location printed in the notice of sale. The owner's right to redeem ends when the commissioners enter into the contract of sale, so a successful bidder takes the parcel with redemption already extinguished. If a winning bid exceeds the delinquent taxes, fees and interest, the county sends the excess funds to parties with a recorded claim, then to the owner of record, and any remainder goes to the Idaho State Treasurer's unclaimed property program.

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

    Teton County publishes no tax sale list online. The Teton County Board of County Commissioners, with the tax deed process handled by the Teton County Treasurer and Tax Collector advertises the parcels ahead of the sale rather than posting them, so the list reaches bidders through the county legal newspaper and the office itself. Call (208) 776-8250 to ask for the current advertisement.

  2. Register to bid

    No bidder registration form or deposit schedule is published. Full requirements are in the sale card above.

County notes

  • The Teton County Treasurer's office states that taking properties at least three years delinquent 'is a function of the Board of County Commissioners; generally processed by the County Treasurer's office', and that 'Once a property is taken in tax deed, the Commissioners could sell the property to regain the delinquent property taxes, fees, and interest.'
  • Teton County publishes no tax-deed property list and no sale notice on its website. Watch the legal notices in the Teton Valley News and the commissioners' meeting agendas for the auction announcement, and call the Treasurer at (208) 776-8250 to be told when a sale is set.
  • The Board of County Commissioners sits at 150 Courthouse Drive, Suite 109, Driggs, ID 83422, phone (208) 776-8254, and meets on the second and fourth Monday and the fourth Tuesday of each month at 9:00 a.m. in the Commissioners' meeting room on the first floor of the courthouse. Auction approvals and terms of sale are set at these meetings.
  • Teton County is a small rural county in the Teton Valley near Driggs and Victor. Few parcels reach tax deed in any given year, so the county can go more than a year between auctions. Plan on periodic calls to the Treasurer rather than an annual sale date.
  • Property taxes are due in two halves, December 20 and June 20, which is the clock that starts the three-year delinquency running toward a tax deed.

Idaho rules

Redemption
The window belongs to the county's holding period, not to the auction. After the tax deed issues to the county, the record owner or a party in interest may redeem by paying the delinquency with late charges, accrued interest and costs including title search and professional fees, plus the taxes that accrued after the deed. That right runs only up to the moment the commissioners enter into a contract of sale or the property is transferred by county deed. Fourteen months after issuance it expires regardless. Since 31-808 requires the auction within those same fourteen months, a buyer at the county auction takes the property with the redemption already extinguished, and the tax deed is presumptive evidence of the regularity of everything before it.
Deed deposit
No statutory deposit. The commissioners set a minimum bid covering all property taxes owing, interest and costs, and the parcel goes to the highest bidder over it. Payment terms are set by each county's own terms of sale, so confirm them before you bid.
Governing statute
Idaho Code title 63, chapter 10

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.
