Sale history

We currently track one active cycle for Smith County at a time and don't yet maintain a distinct archive of past sale events for this county -- when a cycle closes, the record here reflects the newest tracked cycle rather than an appended history. This is a known gap in the dataset, not a claim that Smith County has held only one sale.

Tracked sale event

August 2027 (statute sets the sale on the last Monday in August; the 2026 sale was held August 31, 2026 on GovEase; the parcel list opens on GovEase about a month before) (month-only)
