How Jasper County sells delinquent taxes

From lien to deed

Indiana holds no general public tax deed auction. Once the redemption period runs out, the certificate holder files a verified petition in the same court that entered the judgment of sale, and the court directs the county auditor to issue the deed. That petition must be filed no later than three months after the redemption period expires, or the purchaser's lien terminates. One narrow exception exists: real property a county, city, or town executive has certified as vacant or abandoned is auctioned separately, and there the county auditor deeds fee simple title straight to the highest bidder with no right of redemption.

When it runs
The county's 2026 notice of real property tax sale, dated August 27, 2026, sets the Jasper County tax sale for Friday, October 16, 2026, beginning at 10:00 AM local time in the Courthouse Commissioners' Room, and SRI lists the same date, time and room. The county's tax sale page cites IC 6-1.1-24-1: "On or before July 1 of each year, the County Treasurer shall certify to the County Auditor, a list of real property on which either any property taxes or special assessments certified to the County Auditor for collection by the County Treasurer from the prior years spring installment or before are delinquent." SRI's Indiana guidance adds that "Indiana tax sales are typically held in late August - October."
Registration and deposit

The county's 2026 sale notice says bidders may register online at sriservices.com, and that one registration covers every county SRI serves. Bring the completed registration form and a W9 to the sale, and arrive at least 30 minutes before the start to receive a bid number; bidders without internet access may register the morning of the sale. A business entity must give the Jasper County Treasurer a Certificate of Existence or Foreign Registration Statement from the Secretary of State under IC 6-1.1-24-5.1. Confirm any changes with SRI at (800) 800-9588 or the Auditor's tax sale line at 219-866-4934 before the sale date.

Sale format and venue
This is a live courthouse auction. SRI's Jasper County sale record shows type "In-person" with the location "Courthouse - Commissioners' Room" and a 10:00 AM start. The county published the certified property list with its August 27, 2026 sale notice, and SRI hosts the current list for the October 16, 2026 sale. The notice says the newspaper publication now appears only once, with later notices posted on the county website, and that local officials may move the sale online to zeusauction.com at the same date and time, with any location change posted at sriservices.com before the sale. Two cautions. First, the county's own tax sale page still points to an old SRI address that no longer works, so use the SRI county page instead. Second, SRI also runs Jasper County sheriff mortgage foreclosure auctions online at zeusauction.com; those are a separate sale type and are not the tax sale. SRI's Indiana guidance also notes that Indiana does not allow over the counter sales of leftover certificates.

Jasper County tax sale list and auction calendar

For Jasper County tax sale 2026 searches, use the county-run sources below rather than a copied parcel list, and confirm the parcel, registration cutoff, deposit, and payment deadline against the county before you bid.

  1. Confirm the advertised parcel list

    Use Jasper County tax sale property list (SRI) as a starting reference. Check which sale or list it covers; a Lands Available or office information page is separate from an auction parcel list. Ask the sale office for the advertised parcels for the auction you plan to attend.

  2. Register to bid

    Ask the Jasper County Treasurer how and when to register; many counties close registration days or weeks before the sale.

  3. Sale day

    The sale is live and in person; there is no online bidding platform. Confirm the venue and hour with the Jasper County Treasurer before you go.

  4. Confirm with the office

    If the list, platform, and notice disagree, use the Jasper County Treasurer as the source to confirm which parcels are actually offered.

Before you bid in Jasper County

  1. Confirm the parcel list before pricing

    Open Jasper County tax sale property list (SRI). Confirm whether this reference contains the auction parcels or covers a different list. Get the advertised parcel list from the county before you price a bid, and recheck it before the sale.

  2. Confirm registration and deposit

    The county's 2026 sale notice says bidders may register online at sriservices.com, and that one registration covers every county SRI serves. Bring the completed registration form and a W9 to the sale, and arrive at least 30 minutes before the start to receive a bid number; bidders without internet access may register the morning of the sale. A business entity must give the Jasper County Treasurer a Certificate of Existence or Foreign Registration Statement from the Secretary of State under IC 6-1.1-24-5.1. Confirm any changes with SRI at (800) 800-9588 or the Auditor's tax sale line at 219-866-4934 before the sale date.

  3. Check the state rules that change the bid

    Read the Indiana due-diligence checklist before bidding. Redemption, liens that survive a tax deed, title cleanup, and payment deadlines can change what a parcel is worth.

  4. Set a walk-away number

    Work out what the parcel is actually worth with the rural land value estimator, then turn it into a ceiling with the tax deed max-bid calculator.

Over-the-counter (leftover) purchases

Parcels that draw no bid at the treasurer's tax sale pass to the county executive, which acquires a lien for the minimum sale price and receives a tax sale certificate. The county executive may then adopt a resolution and offer those certificates at a separate advertised public sale, often called the commissioners' certificate sale, priced below the minimum bid that failed at the tax sale. Notice runs once a week for three consecutive weeks with the final advertisement at least 30 days before the sale. This is a scheduled sale rather than a walk-in list, and redemption on a certificate bought this way is 120 days. Check the county auditor page for the next commissioners' certificate sale date.

Indiana rules

Max interest rate
15% of the amount paid maximum, as a flat statutory penalty
Minimum return
10% statutory penalty at redemption
Redemption
The standard period is one year after the date of the treasurer's tax sale. Several tracks run 120 days instead: a certificate bought at the county executive's certificate sale, a lien the county executive holds that was never sold on, a sale to a purchasing agency qualified under IC 36-7-17 or IC 36-7-17.1, a certificate the county executive assigns to another political subdivision, and a parcel that was not offered at the tax sale at all. Property on the county auditor's vacant and abandoned list carries no right of redemption after its sale. A county treasurer may also extend redemption by agreement with the owner, in which case the extended period ends one year after the date of that agreement.
Surplus proceeds
The treasurer applies the payment first to the taxes, assessments, penalties, and costs in the minimum bid, then to other delinquent property taxes, then deposits the remainder in a tax sale surplus fund. The owner of record at the time the parcel was certified for sale, or the purchaser on a redemption, may file a verified claim against that fund. Unclaimed surplus transfers to the county general fund three years after it was received.
Governing statute
IC 6-1.1-24-5

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.
