Where to Find Florida Tax Sale Lists for Free
By Israel Chen ·
Short answer: Florida tax sale lists are free at the source: each county clerk's tax deed page, the county's auction calendar, and legal notices in a local paper. You shouldn't need to pay anyone for a list, and official pages beat third-party ones.
Where to look
- The clerk's page. Pasco, Polk and Hillsborough all post sale lists.
- The auction calendar. Most online counties list sales on their RealAuction site.
- Legal notices. Clerks advertise each sale once a week for four weeks in a local paper.
Links to all 67 are in the Florida Tax Deed Finder.
Why go to the source
Parcels drop out when owners redeem, so a copied list goes stale fast. Escambia's clerk advises against relying on third-party sites to find properties.
Questions
Are Florida tax deed lists free?
Yes. Clerks publish them on their own sites, and sales are advertised in local newspapers.
