Redemption (state)
Owner may redeem from the State Auditor at any time until a deed is issued; in practice a deed can follow roughly 18 months after the sale (SB 552 (2022) now runs sales through the State Auditor).

Statutory terms are inherited from West Virginia. 1% per month from the date of sale = 12%/yr, applied to taxes/charges due at sale (and to subsequently paid taxes and capped expenses from their payment dates), per W. Va. Code §11A-3-56. Since the 2022 SB 552 overhaul the State Auditor conducts one annual tax-lien-certificate sale per county; the frequently-quoted older 18% figure no longer applies — current redemption interest is 1%/month (12%/yr) under §11A-3-56.
