How Campbell County sells delinquent taxes

From lien to deed

Wyoming holds no county tax deed auction. A certificate holder whose certificate is not redeemed may apply to the county treasurer for a tax deed not less than four nor more than six years after the original sale, returning the certificate, paying the 25 dollar deed fee and proving notice. At least three months before applying, the holder must serve written notice on every person in actual possession or occupancy and on the person the property was taxed to, if they can be found in the county; if nobody occupies the property and the taxpayer cannot be found, the holder instead publishes the notice once a week for three weeks in a county newspaper, the first publication not more than five months and the last not less than three months before applying. Either way the holder must also send notice by certified or registered mail to the record owner and any mortgagees whose addresses are known. The notice states when the holder bought, the name the parcel was taxed in, its description, the tax year, when redemption expires, when the deed application will be made, and any special assessments. Where the county itself holds an unredeemed certificate, the treasurer issues and records a tax deed to the county after four years, following at least 60 days' notice from the county clerk to the person assessed and any mortgagees. The published notices of intent to apply are not sales.

Registration and deposit

The sale is held in person. After the Treasurer announces each delinquent property by owner name and amount due, a number is drawn, and the participant whose number matches may purchase the lien or pass. All liens purchased must be paid upon completion of the sale by cash, certified funds, personal check, or credit card (Discover, VISA, MasterCard, American Express; card user fees apply). Contact the Treasurer for bidder number procedures.

Sale format and venue
Campbell County runs an in-person tax lien sale using a random number draw rather than competitive bidding on rate. The certificate earns 15% per annum interest plus a 3% penalty on the day of purchase. The county keeps custody of the certificate of purchase and sends redemption payments directly to the purchaser. Subsequent-year taxes paid by the certificate holder attach to the original lien at the same 15% rate. Owners may redeem for five years from the sale. The holder may apply for a tax deed no earlier than four years from the sale after meeting the notice requirements of W.S. 39-13-108, and the Treasurer cannot issue a tax deed after six years have lapsed since the sale. The county posts no sale list online; the list appears only in the legal newspaper notice.

Campbell County tax sale list and auction calendar

For Campbell 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.

  1. Get the advertised list

    Campbell County publishes no tax sale list online. The Campbell County Treasurer advertises the parcels ahead of the sale rather than posting them, so the list reaches bidders through the county legal newspaper and the office itself. Call 307-682-7268 to ask for the current advertisement.

  2. Register to bid

    The sale is held in person. Full requirements are in the sale card above.

  3. Sale day

    The county does not publish a fixed sale date. 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 Campbell County Treasurer as the source to confirm which parcels are actually offered.

Before you bid in Campbell County

  1. Start with the live sale list

    There is no online list to price against. Campbell County advertises the parcels before the sale rather than posting them, so get the advertisement from the office on 307-682-7268 and price from the parcel numbers it carries.

  2. Confirm registration and deposit

    The sale is held in person. After the Treasurer announces each delinquent property by owner name and amount due, a number is drawn, and the participant whose number matches may purchase the lien or pass. All liens purchased must be paid upon completion of the sale by cash, certified funds, personal check, or credit card (Discover, VISA, MasterCard, American Express; card user fees apply). Contact the Treasurer for bidder number procedures.

  3. Check the state rules that change the bid

    Read the Wyoming due-diligence checklist before bidding. Redemption, liens that survive a tax deed, title cleanup, and payment deadlines can change what a parcel is worth.

  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

Parcels that no one buys at the sale are bid in for the county. The board of county commissioners may sell and assign those county-held certificates at public or private sale at any time, and the assignee takes all the rights of an original purchaser. Whether a county offers them over the counter, and at what price, is set by that county; ask the county treasurer.

  • Campbell County's tax lien sale is held in person in Gillette, and buyers are chosen by random number draw, not by bidding down a rate.
  • Certificates earn 15% per annum plus a 3% penalty on the purchase date; the owner's redemption period is five years from the sale.
  • A tax deed application is allowed from four years after the sale and must be completed within six years of it, under W.S. 39-13-108.

Wyoming rules

Max interest rate
15% per year, fixed by statute (nothing is bid)
Minimum return
3% one-time penalty at redemption, added on top of the interest
Redemption
The legal owner may redeem at any time after the sale until a valid tax deed application has been filed with and accepted by the county treasurer. Because the treasurer cannot accept an application until four years after the sale, every owner has at least four years; after that the window stays open until the holder applies, and the holder must apply by the sixth year or lose the deed route. Redemption money is paid to the county treasurer, who holds it for the certificate holder, issues a certificate of redemption and notifies the holder. Where the county holds the certificate, the treasurer deeds the parcel to the county after four years. Where the holder instead forecloses in district court, anyone with an interest in the property may redeem until the court confirms the sheriff's sale.
Surplus proceeds
The treasurer's deed route conveys the parcel to the certificate holder, and nothing in Chapter 13 provides for paying the former owner any value above the certificate. On the judicial route, proceeds go first to the costs of the action and sale, including an attorney's fee allowed by the court, then to the lienholder, and the balance to persons holding prior interests in the property as their interests appear. That balance must be claimed within two years of the court's confirmation of the sale, or within one year after a legal disability ends, and unclaimed money is credited to the county sinking fund. No deficiency judgment may be entered.
Governing statute
W.S. Title 39, Chapter 13

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.
