How Pushmataha County sells delinquent taxes

No tax lien certificate sale

No Oklahoma county sells a tax lien certificate, or any other interest-bearing instrument, to a private investor. The county treasurer collects delinquent taxes and, once the three-year clock in 68 O.S. 3105 has run, sells the parcel itself at the June resale.

When it runs
Annual June resale. The Treasurer's office states it "conducts a public auction on the second Monday of each June," and its tax calendar lists "Second Monday in June" as the TAX RESALE. Bidding opens at 9:00 a.m. and continues until the published list is finished. Statute sets the sale hours as 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., though the county reports normally finishing within a couple of hours. The 2026 resale was held June 8, 2026 at 9:00 a.m. Property lists "become available from our office in May preceding the June auction."
Registration and deposit

Register at the door on the morning of the sale. There is no online bidder registration and no advance deadline, but the Treasurer's bidder packet is explicit that "YOU OR YOUR REPRESENTATIVE MUST BE PRESENT AT THE SALE. THIS IS NOT A SEALED BID SALE-IT IS AN OPEN, ACTIVE AUCTION WHERE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER." To obtain a bidder number you give your name, address and telephone number on the sign-in sheet, which becomes part of the permanent sale record, and you sign an affidavit stating whether you are bidding for yourself or as an agent for someone else. You cannot do both. Payment is due at the sale in cash or cashier's check. Personal checks are accepted only with a letter of credit from the issuing bank dated within one business day of the sale. Bidders may not leave to collect funds, and a parcel is resold to the next highest bidder if payment is not on hand.

Sale format and venue
Pushmataha County sells the resale deed itself at an in-person, open outcry auction to the highest bidder. There is no online bidding and no lien certificate is offered to investors. The 2026 sale was held at the Pushmataha County OSU Extension Office, 306 SW B Street, Antlers, which is not the Treasurer's own office, so confirm the venue with the Treasurer at 580-298-2580 extension 3 before each June sale. The minimum bid is the total delinquent tax, penalty, fees, costs and any special assessments due as of the sale date, or two-thirds of the assessed value, whichever is less. On top of the winning bid the buyer pays a $10.00 deed fee plus the County Clerk's fee for recording the deed. Parcels sell in the order they appear in the published list and are sold by legal description rather than street address, with no warranty of title and no abstract or title insurance provided. Redemption closes before bidding starts: the resale list states owners may redeem "by paying the full amount due no later than 8:30 a.m." on the sale date. The winning bidder receives a resale tax deed, and the packet warns that "YOU DO NOT OWN THE PROPERTY UNTIL THE DEED IS FILED WITH THE PUSHMATAHA COUNTY CLERK." Under 68 O.S. 3141 an interested party has one year from recording to challenge the deed, so budget for a quiet title action before building, financing or insuring. Federal and state liens survive in some cases and are announced before the affected parcel is offered; an IRS lien carries a 120-day right of redemption from the deed date. The Treasurer also posts a County Owned Property list of tracts the county holds from earlier resales, which may be sold between auctions with Board of County Commissioners approval.

Pushmataha County tax sale list and auction calendar

For Pushmataha 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. If the parcels on this list are vacant land rather than houses, what buying land at a tax sale hands you is the place to start.

  1. Get the advertised list

    Use June Resale Properties list (PDF) for the current advertised parcels, then recheck it before the auction.

  2. Register to bid

    Register at the door on the morning of the sale. Full requirements are in the sale card above.

  3. Sale day

    Annual June resale. The sale is live and in person; there is no online bidding platform. Confirm the venue and hour with the county office before you go.

  4. Confirm with the office

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

Before you bid in Pushmataha County

  1. Start with the live sale list

    Pull the current advertised parcels from June Resale Properties list (PDF). Lists can change before the sale, so recheck the county source before you price a parcel.

  2. Confirm registration and deposit

    Register at the door on the morning of the sale. There is no online bidder registration and no advance deadline, but the Treasurer's bidder packet is explicit that "YOU OR YOUR REPRESENTATIVE MUST BE PRESENT AT THE SALE. THIS IS NOT A SEALED BID SALE-IT IS AN OPEN, ACTIVE AUCTION WHERE PROPERTY IS SOLD TO THE HIGHEST BIDDER." To obtain a bidder number you give your name, address and telephone number on the sign-in sheet, which becomes part of the permanent sale record, and you sign an affidavit stating whether you are bidding for yourself or as an agent for someone else. You cannot do both. Payment is due at the sale in cash or cashier's check. Personal checks are accepted only with a letter of credit from the issuing bank dated within one business day of the sale. Bidders may not leave to collect funds, and a parcel is resold to the next highest bidder if payment is not on hand.

  3. Check the state rules that change the bid

    Read the Oklahoma due-diligence checklist before bidding. Redemption, liens that survive a tax deed, title cleanup, and payment deadlines can change what a parcel is worth. Which liens survive is state law, so read what survives a tax deed in Oklahoma before you price the title work.

  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

Oklahoma has no certificate to buy over the counter. What a county can sell between resales is its own stock of parcels bid off at a past resale and held by the board of county commissioners. There are two routes. A buyer can submit a bid to the treasurer, who then advertises it once in each of the three consecutive weeks before a stated sale date; on that date the parcel goes to the highest competitive bidder for cash or certified funds, or back to the original bidder if nobody outbids them. Or the county can hold a periodic auction of its resale stock at a time the treasurer sets. Either way the sale needs the approval of the board of county commissioners, a bid below the taxes owed at the original resale also needs the county excise board, and the buyer covers advertising, sale costs and the recording fee on top of the bid. Counties usually publish this inventory as a county-owned property list, on no fixed schedule.

  • Bidding is in person only, with no online platform. Payment is cash or cashier's check at the sale; a personal check needs a bank letter of credit dated within one business day of the sale (source: push_bidder_packet).
  • Resale property lists are released by the Treasurer's office in May before the June auction. Delinquent real estate taxes are published in the local newspaper in mid-September or October, and delinquent real estate statements go out in mid-August (source: oktaxrolls_pushmataha).
  • Minimum bid is the delinquent tax, penalty, fees, costs and special assessments due at the sale date, or two-thirds of assessed value, whichever is lower (source: push_bidder_packet).

Oklahoma rules

Redemption
Oklahoma gives the owner a long runway and then a hard stop. Redemption is open from the moment the taxes go delinquent right up to the start of the resale auction, which is three years or more. Once the auction begins, the right is gone: there is no post-sale redemption period, no owner buyback window and no premium for the buyer to collect, which is what separates Oklahoma from a redeemable-deed state such as Texas or Georgia. The single exception is for a person under a legal disability. A minor, or a person who is incapacitated or partially incapacitated, may redeem within one year after the disability ends, and 68 O.S. 3131(A) repeats the same one-year window after removal of the disability. The statute says in terms that incapacity here means mental incapacity only and that physical disability is not covered.
Deed deposit
Oklahoma sets no statewide deposit percentage and no statutory bidder registration. The statute requires payment in cash or certified funds, and permits online payment where the resale is run online. Counties run this as a cash sale with registration in the days before. Comanche County registered bidders from May 26 to June 5, 2026 and again from 8:30 a.m. on sale day, took cash or cashier's check on deposit in trust only through June 2, and told bidders they must have cash in hand at the moment of bidding. Oklahoma County ran the same shape with a wire cutoff of June 4 and a cashier's check cutoff of June 1. Confirm the county's registration window, accepted funds and cutoffs before travelling.
Surplus proceeds
When a parcel sells for more than the taxes, penalties, interest and costs due on it, the treasurer notifies the Oklahoma Tax Commission within 30 days. The Tax Commission has 60 days to report any outstanding state tax liabilities attached to the parcel, whether or not a tax warrant was filed, and the treasurer remits to it the lesser of those liabilities or the excess proceeds. Whatever is left is held in a separate fund for the record owner as of the date the resale began, and may be withdrawn any time within one year. Any assignment of the right to those excess proceeds made on or after the day the resale began is void, which closes the courthouse-steps surplus assignment trade. Money not claimed within the year is credited to the county resale property fund.
Governing statute
Okla. Stat. tit. 68, Article 31 (68 O.S. 3101 et seq.)

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.
