Parsell doesn't run the sale. Every listing links to the county's sale page or the auction platform, where you register and bid.

Colorado rules in brief

Colorado sells tax liens, not land. Each county treasurer holds one tax lien sale a year, usually in late October or November and mostly online. You pay the taxes owed and earn interest until the owner pays the lien off. If the owner never does, the lien can lead to a treasurer's deed years later.

What do you get at a Colorado tax sale?
A tax lien, not the land. The owner can pay off the lien any time until a treasurer's deed issues. After three years the holder can apply for a treasurer's deed. Since 2024 that goes to a public auction where the opening bid is the redemption amount plus costs, and any surplus goes to the former owner.
