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
unsold certificates
Mississippi counties do not keep an over-the-counter list. A tract that draws no bid is struck off to the state, and if it is still unredeemed after two years the chancery clerk certifies it to the Secretary of State. Any person may then apply in writing to the Secretary of State's Public Lands Division to buy the parcel, and the office may also sell state-forfeited land by sealed bid after three weeks of newspaper advertisement, or by online auction.

Tax Collector (runs the certificate sale)
County notes
- The Chancery Clerk keeps the tax sale record and processes redemption. Noxubee County Chancery Clerk, 2832 Jefferson St, Suite 4, Macon, MS 39341, phone 662-726-4244, fax 662-726-2272, open Monday through Friday 8 am to 5 pm.
- The Tax Assessor/Collector office is at 2832 Jefferson Street, Suite 2, Macon, MS 39341, phone (662) 726-4744, fax (662) 726-2679, open Monday through Friday 8 am to 5 pm. Valerie Harris serves as Tax Assessor/Collector.
- County property tax records are searchable through Delta Computer Systems, linked from the county site as Pay Taxes. That lookup returns parcel and tax data by owner name, address, parcel number, section/township/range, or PPIN. It is a parcel search, not a sale list.
- No official Noxubee County delinquent land list or sale notice was found online. Search results surface aggregator pages such as ustaxrecords.com, taxliens.com, and taxsaleresources.com that advertise Noxubee tax sale data. None of those is a county office and none was used as a source here.
- The Chancery Clerk's online portal covers land records and recorded instruments only. It does not expose tax sale, redemption, or delinquent tax records, so redemption questions go to the office by phone.
- Liens that go unsold and unredeemed mature to the State of Mississippi. The Secretary of State's Public Lands Division then sells that tax-forfeited land through an online application, with assistance at 601-359-6393 or 1-866-835-2637.
Mississippi rules
- Redemption
- Miss. Code Ann. 27-43-1 requires the chancery clerk to issue notice to the record owner within 180 days and not less than 60 days before the redemption period expires. Miss. Code Ann. 27-43-3 then requires the sheriff or a constable to serve a resident owner, the clerk to mail the notice by registered or certified mail, and the owner's name and the legal description to be published in a county newspaper at least 45 days before the period ends. Recorded lienors get their own notice. If the clerk inadvertently fails to send the notice, the sale is void. The clerk's fees for that work are taxed against the owner on redemption and against the purchaser if the land is not redeemed.
- Surplus proceeds
- Any amount bid above the taxes and costs is reported to the chancery clerk and paid into the county treasury. If the land is redeemed, or the purchaser's title is defeated or set aside, the county keeps the excess. If the land is not redeemed, the former owner may request the excess after the redemption period ends, and the county keeps it if no request comes within two years.
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.
