How foreclosure and tax sales work in Florida

General rules. Procedures vary by county, so confirm with the official office.

Florida uses judicial foreclosure: the lender must sue in court, and the property is sold by the county clerk of court, almost always online.

Florida uses both: tax lien certificates are sold first, and properties whose certificates are not redeemed can later be sold at a tax deed auction. Sales are run by the county tax collector (certificates) and clerk of court (tax deeds).

Tax certificate sales are held each year by June 1. Tax deed auctions run year-round.
