Tulsa County tax sales, Oklahoma

Verified

Tulsa County is the one county in this set whose official auction page has already rolled to 2027, with an actual published date: Monday, June 14, 2027, auction information expected approximately May 15, 2027. The same roll forward means the county's exact June 2026 date no longer appears on its current pages; a secondary aggregator reports June 8, 2026, the statutory pattern date, and this page flags that as unverified rather than adopting it. Tulsa's volume is the largest stated in the set, 475 to 500 properties in an average year, and its current page carries the corrected 180,000 dollar exemption cap, where older county notices elsewhere still print the stale 125,000 dollar figure.

June 14, 2027 is the second Monday of June 2027 and is verified against the county's published page. The exact June 2026 resale date is not published on the county's current official pages, which have rolled to 2027.

Research Tulsa County parcels before you bid

A sale list gives you the parcels, the date, and the opening terms. It does not give you the owner, the value, or the rest of the picture: liens, foreclosure status, and parcel history. PropertyRadar is the data platform for that layer. It carries owner records, assessed and market values, foreclosure and tax data, and property history for parcels across Tulsa County, searchable by address, owner, or county, including parcels that never reach a sale list.

How the Oklahoma tax resale works

There is one sale, and it is the June resale. The October tax sale most guides still describe, with its certificate of purchase, was repealed in 2008 by Laws 2008, chapter 82, which repealed sections 3107 through 3124 in large part, including section 3108. No October sale exists in current Oklahoma law, no certificate is sold, and no county in this set publishes one. What the treasurer sells at the June resale is the real estate itself, and the buyer receives a resale tax deed.
Eligibility is a three year delinquency test, not a chain from an earlier sale. Under section 3105, where taxes have been unpaid for three years or more as of the date they first became due and payable, the treasurer advertises and sells the real estate at the resale for those taxes and all other delinquent taxes, special assessments and costs. County wording that says four years, as one treasurer document in this set does, contradicts the statute. Section 3105 also exempts a qualifying senior or disabled homeowner's single family dwelling in counties over 100,000 population where the fair market value on the tax rolls does not exceed 180,000 dollars; the owner must apply yearly, and taxes keep accruing during the exemption.
Notice runs in two rounds, and the mortgagee rule matters. The treasurer publishes the delinquent list and mails the record owner under section 3106, then advertises the resale once a week for four consecutive weeks under section 3127 and sends certified mail at least 30 days before the sale to the record owner and to all mortgagees of record. Failure to send notice to a mortgagee does not invalidate the resale, but the resale tax deed is ineffective to extinguish that mortgagee's mortgage.
The date rule has a 2025 wrinkle for online sales. The resale is held on the second Monday of June under section 3125. Since Laws 2025, chapter 179 took effect on November 1, 2025, a resale conducted through an online auction may instead start on a date and time the treasurer sets within the full week of the second Monday. Rogers County's 2026 resale opened on Tuesday, June 9, 2026 under that rule. An in person sale is held at the treasurer's office between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m., continues day to day until all the real estate is sold, and is a public auction to the highest bidder for cash or certified funds (section 3129); an online auctioneer cost is added to the sale of each property.
The minimum bid is a lesser of formula, and unsold property goes to the county. The minimum bid at resale is the lesser of two thirds of the assessed value as fixed for the current fiscal year or the total amount of taxes, penalties, interest and costs due, with a reserve variant covering noticed abatement and municipal costs. If no bid meets the required sum, the treasurer bids the property off in the name of the county (municipal liens and nuisance property follow the section's municipal route), issues a deed to the board of county commissioners, and the property is exempt from ad valorem tax while the county holds it (section 3129).
Redemption now ends before the auction commences. Under section 3113 as amended by House Bill 1663, effective November 1, 2025, the owner or any person with a legal or equitable interest may redeem by paying the delinquent sum with interest and costs, but the redemption must occur before the commencement of the resale auction. The older rule, redemption until the treasurer executes the deed, is what older guides and at least one county document in this set still print, and it is no longer law. There is no general redemption after a resale deed; minors and incapacitated persons keep a limited right to redeem within one year after the disability ends.
The deed follows within 30 days, and the deed is narrower than it sounds. The treasurer files a return and delivers the deed within 30 days after the resale (section 3131). The deed cancels the delinquent taxes, assessments, penalties and costs and vests absolute and perfect title in fee simple, subject to claims the state may have had; twelve months after the deed is filed for record, no action may be brought to avoid or set it aside. But under section 3119 the deed conveys only the surface and surface rights and the mineral interests owned by the owners of the surface rights, and under section 3127 it does not extinguish the mortgage of a mortgagee who received no notice.
The excess and the leftovers both have statutory routes. If a tract sells for more than the amount due, section 3131 sends the excess first through an Oklahoma Tax Commission check for outstanding state tax liabilities (treasurer notice within 30 days, Commission report within 60 days), and any remainder is held for the record owner for one year from the date the resale began before it is credited to the county resale property fund; assignments of excess rights made on or after the resale began are invalid. Property the county acquires moves to the commissioners sale under section 3135: a bid initiated sale, published once a week for three consecutive weeks, sold to the highest competitive bidder for cash in hand or certified funds subject to the approval of the board of county commissioners, with a bidder deposit for advertising costs required before advertisement.

How buying works in Tulsa County

NOT PUBLISHED for 2027 on the official pages read; the county says auction information will be available approximately May 15, 2027. Registration mechanics reported by a secondary summary of the Treasurer's auction page (a recommended pre deposit, bidder age and citizenship rules, set bidding hours) are flagged unverified on this page and are not stated as county terms.

The minimum bid is a floor, not a valuation. The lesser of formula in section 3129 (two thirds of assessed value or the total due) tells you the lowest bid the treasurer can accept, not what the parcel is worth. In thin counties the floor is often the price, because there is no second bidder; in the metro counties the 475 to 500 parcel Tulsa volume shows the room is real. The surplus rule cuts the other way from premium states: everything you bid above the amount due still buys the same deed, and the excess over the amount due belongs on the section 3131 route to the state and the former owner, not to you.
An online county can move the start day inside the week. Since November 1, 2025, an online resale starts on a treasurer set date within the full week of the second Monday of June. Rogers County opened on a Tuesday in 2026. A calendar that hard codes the Monday will miss an online county's opening, and in an online room the opening hours are when the underpriced parcels go.
The deed is surface only, so the title questions are the bid questions. Section 3119 limits the deed to the surface and the minerals the surface owner owned, and section 3127 preserves the mortgage of any mortgagee who was not noticed. Neither limit appears in the sale list. The pre bid work in Oklahoma is the title work: who owned the minerals, and whether every mortgagee of record got the certified mailing.

Terms: what a bid actually costs

Deposit, Tulsa County	NOT PUBLISHED on the official pages read. A secondary summary of the Treasurer's auction page reports a recommended pre deposit of the expected purchase amount with a 500 dollar minimum; flagged unverified, because the underlying official page was not opened.
Payment, Tulsa County	NOT PUBLISHED on the official pages read. The same secondary summary reports cash, cashier's check or money order; flagged unverified. The statute requires cash or certified funds at resale (section 3129).
What is sold	The real estate itself, at the June resale, conveyed by a resale tax deed from the county treasurer. There is no lien sale and no certificate of purchase in current Oklahoma law; the October sale that sold them was repealed in 2008.
The minimum bid	The lesser of two thirds of the assessed value as fixed for the current fiscal year or the total amount of taxes, penalties, interest and costs due (section 3129). A reserve minimum bid covering taxes, abatement costs, penalties, interest and municipal costs may apply where that right has been noticed to the treasurer. If no bid meets the required sum, the property is bid off to the county.
The interest	Delinquent ad valorem taxes bear interest at one and one half percent per month until paid, 18 percent per year, with total interest capped at 100 percent of the unpaid principal (section 2913). The five percent per month figure sometimes quoted as an Oklahoma penalty is not general: it applies only to a narrow class in subsection E of section 2913 (dependent school district, county under 75,000 population, nonindividual taxpayer, two or more consecutive delinquent years, fair cash value over 500,000 dollars).
Redemption	The owner, or any person having a legal or equitable interest, may redeem by paying the delinquent sum with interest at the lawful rate plus accrued costs, but only before the commencement of the resale auction (section 3113, as amended effective November 1, 2025). There is no general right to redeem after a resale deed issues; minors and incapacitated persons may redeem within one year after the disability ends, at not more than 10 percent per annum.
The deed	Delivered within 30 days after the resale (section 3131). It cancels and sets aside all delinquent taxes, assessments, penalties and costs and vests absolute and perfect title in fee simple, subject to claims the state may have had, and twelve months after it is filed for record no action may be brought to avoid or set it aside. The purchaser also pays the deed fees set by Title 28, section 43, plus an amount covering county preparing, listing and advertising expenses, credited to the resale property fund.
The limits on the deed	A resale tax deed conveys only the surface and surface rights and the mineral interests owned by the owners of the surface rights (section 3119). It does not convey any other interest owned by any other person, and it is ineffective to extinguish the mortgage of a mortgagee who received no notice of the resale (section 3127). Price the minerals question and the mortgage notice question separately from the tax title.
The excess	Any amount over the taxes, penalties, interest and costs due is not the buyer's money. The treasurer notifies the Oklahoma Tax Commission within 30 days; the Commission has 60 days to report outstanding state tax liabilities and takes the lesser of that liability or the excess; any remainder is held for the record owner as of the date the resale begins, withdrawable within one year, and unclaimed excess is then credited to the county resale property fund (section 3131).
Payment	Cash or certified funds at the sale (section 3129). An in person sale runs at the treasurer's office between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. on hours the local treasurer sets; an online auction may accept online payments, and the online auctioneer cost is added to the sale of each property. County specific funding cutoffs, where a county publishes them, are on the county page.

The leftover channel: the July commissioners sale list

The Treasurer's official calendar of events states that in July, properties acquired by the county at the June resale are added to the Commissioner's sale list and are available for bid, linking to the county's County Properties for Sale page. That is the section 3135 commissioners sale channel: a bid initiated sale, published for three consecutive weeks, sold to the highest competitive bidder subject to the approval of the Board of County Commissioners.

Before you bid

Read the current statute, not the county handout, for the two rules that changed. Eligibility is three years or more under section 3105, whatever a county document saying four years claims, and redemption ends before the resale auction commences under section 3113 as amended November 1, 2025, whatever a document saying redeem until the deeds are filed claims. Both stale versions are in print in this set, on county paper.
Run the exemption screen before you price a house. In counties over 100,000 population, a qualifying senior or disabled homeowner's single family dwelling at or under 180,000 dollars of fair market value is exempt from the resale while the owner applies yearly (section 3105). A listed house can be pulled on that ground; the exemption is part of diligence, not a surprise to meet at the sale.
Budget the deed side costs. The purchaser pays the deed fees under Title 28, section 43 plus the county preparing, listing and advertising amount credited to the resale property fund (section 3131), and at an online sale the auctioneer cost added to each property (section 3129). The hammer price is not the total.
Set the maximum before the sale opens. The free Max-Bid Calculator below works backwards from your exit value to the highest bid you can pay, with the costs shown. With a statutory floor doing the opening work and no premium to model, the Oklahoma maximum is mostly a title and exit decision, and it has to be made before the first tract is called.
