When it runs
No published schedule or cadence. The county's property tax page says only that after the two-year redemption on a lien filed "on the first Monday in June," if not paid "a TAX DEED will be taken transferring delinquent property to the Mineral County Treasurer, Trustee and will be available for auction." No month, date, or upcoming sale is posted anywhere on the county site.
Registration and deposit
Sale format and venue
The county runs the sale itself; no online auction platform is named anywhere on the official site, and no trustee auction is currently noticed on the county's public notices page or the current commission agenda, so treat sales here as infrequent and county-announced rather than on a fixed calendar. The county says delinquent properties are published on the Mineral County website within 60 days after the first Monday of March, but no delinquent or trustee property list is posted there now. The Devnet Wedge portal linked from the county site (mineralnv.devnetwedge.com) is for tax payments and record lookups only, not auctions.

County notes
- Mineral County combines the Clerk and Treasurer into one office (Clerk-Treasurer Teresa McNally), open Monday through Thursday 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. and closed Fridays.
- County process per the Clerk-Treasurer's property tax page: delinquencies are published within 60 days after the first Monday of March, a tax lien is filed on the first Monday in June, owners have two years from the lien filing to redeem, and unredeemed parcels pass by tax deed to the Mineral County Treasurer, Trustee for auction.
- No auction platform, sale date, registration procedure, or trustee property list is published on the county site, and nothing is noticed on the public notices page or the August 19, 2026 commission agenda, so investors must contact the office directly.
- Mail payments and correspondence go to Mineral County Treasurer, P.O. Box 1450, Hawthorne, NV 89415; the office sits in the Mineral County Courthouse at 105 South A Street.
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.
