When it runs
The Treasurer's tax sale page announces: "Lander County's next trustee property sale is September 8-9, 2026," with a deposit deadline of September 1, 2026. The page does not state a fixed annual month.
Registration and deposit
Sale format and venue
The county calls this its trustee property sale and holds it entirely online through Bid4Assets; the Bid4Assets listing is titled "Lander, Nevada Treasurer Tax Defaulted Properties Auction" and shows the sale opening September 8, 2026 at 8:00 AM PT and closing September 9, 2026. Auctions are no-reserve with minimum bids set per parcel (as low as $300 in 2026). The parcel list with legal descriptions, acreage, and minimum bids is published directly on the Treasurer's tax sale page, which warns that deletions from the list may occur before the sale. The county's www.bid4assets.com/Lander link redirects to the current sale's storefront page.

County notes
- Lander County's sale is a genuine online Bid4Assets auction, not a courtesy notice: the Treasurer's page states "we will hold our property tax auction online through www.bid4assets.com/Lander" and requires bidders to register and send deposits to Bid4Assets.
- The 2026 sale listed 60 parcels with per-parcel minimum bids ranging from a few hundred dollars to five figures, mostly rural lots (Kingston Canyon, Battle Mountain townsite).
- Bid4Assets deposit terms for 2026: a single $500 deposit plus a $35 processing fee, due by 1:00 PM PT September 1, 2026; the county page quotes the same deadline.
- The Bid4Assets vanity URL www.bid4assets.com/Lander redirects to a sale-specific storefront (LanderNVSept26), so the storefront URL changes each sale while the vanity URL stays stable.
Nevada rules
- Redemption
- The trustee's certificate is dated the first Monday in June, and the county treasurer holds the property subject to redemption for 2 years after that date, or 1 year for property determined abandoned under NRS 361.567. Even after the unredeemed parcel is deeded to the county treasurer as trustee, the owner and other interested persons can still have the property reconveyed by paying everything owed, up to the close of business on the third business day before the day of the sale. On the separate local-government acquisition track under NRS 361.603, the last known owner instead gets a 90-day window after the notice of intent to sell, and no reconveyance is allowed after that window expires.
- Deed deposit
- NRS Chapter 361 sets no statutory bidder deposit for trustee sales. Registration, deposit and payment deadlines are set county by county in each auction's terms, so confirm them on the county treasurer's page before bidding.
- Surplus proceeds
- After the taxes and costs on the parcel are paid, the county keeps the first $300 of the excess proceeds plus 10 percent of the next $10,000. The remainder goes into a separate interest-bearing account, and persons with recorded interests may claim it in writing within 1 year after the treasurer's deed is recorded, paid in a statutory priority order that runs through recorded lienholders before the former owner. Unclaimed money is split 5 percent to the account created by NRS 249.095 and the rest to the county general fund, with no later refund. A fee for helping a claimant recover excess proceeds is capped at 10 percent of the amount due.
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.
