Pershing County, NV tax sales

County offices

County notes

• •Pershing County combines the Clerk and Treasurer roles in one elected office (Lacey Donaldson, Clerk-Treasurer), so the tax deed sale authority is the Clerk-Treasurer rather than a standalone Treasurer.
• •County delinquency timeline per the Delinquent Penalties page: unpaid parcels are advertised and a tax lien is filed on the first Monday in June; owners have 2 years from the lien filing to redeem; unredeemed parcels pass by tax deed to the Pershing County Treasurer, Trustee, and later sell at a County Trust Property Sale. This matches the NRS 361 trustee-sale framework.
• •The Bid4Assets storefront at bid4assets.com/pershing names the seller as County of Pershing, Nevada Clerk-Treasurer and carries the same November 19-21, 2025 dates published on the county site.
• •The county Tax Sales page carries a staff contact link to [email protected] in addition to the main [email protected] mailbox used for the sale-notice mailing list.

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.Nevada Revised Statutes 361.585 - deed to the county treasurer as trustee after the redemption period; reconveyance until the third business day before the saleNRS 361.585Verified Aug 16, 2026

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.Nevada Revised Statutes 361.595 - board-ordered sale of trust property for not less than taxes, costs, penalties and interest; quitclaim deed to the purchaserNRS 361.595Verified Aug 16, 2026

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.Nevada Revised Statutes 361.610 - disposition of sale proceeds; excess-proceeds claims within 1 year of recording of the deedNRS 361.610Verified Aug 16, 2026

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.
