How Oklahoma Tax Liens Work
Oklahoma is a tax lien state, meaning when property owners fail to pay their property taxes, the county sells tax lien certificates to investors rather than the property itself. As an investor in Oklahoma tax liens, you pay the delinquent taxes and earn 8% annual interest when the property owner redeems.
Oklahoma Redemption Period
Property owners in Oklahoma have 24 months to redeem their tax lien by paying the delinquent taxes plus 8% interest. If the owner doesn't redeem within this period, you may be able to foreclose and potentially acquire the property.
