Statutory terms are inherited from Alabama. 12%/yr max, bid down to 0% (tax lien auctions); traditional tax-deed sales redeem at 12%, but capped at 8% on the overbid for sales after 1/1/2020 Counties choose their method: most now run tax-lien auctions (Title 40 Ch.10 Art.7, bid down from 12%), but some still hold traditional highest-bid tax-deed sales — confirm which the target county uses.
