Auction Side: what a subscriber sees

Every screen below is a real screenshot of the live site, logged in as a paid subscriber. Nothing is mocked up. The auction side covers properties that are scheduled for, coming to, or came out of a Texas tax foreclosure sale.

Captured September 13, 2026. Counts and dollar figures change daily as the data refreshes.

1Two sides to the site

Auctions on the left: properties on the courthouse-sale track. Records on the right: the full delinquent tax roll, most of which will never go to auction. The stat tiles refresh daily.

Does a property show up on both sides? No. If a property is on the auction track it lives on the auction side only. That keeps counts honest and stops you from working the same parcel twice.

2Auction property cards

Each card carries a deal grade (A to F), a severity level, assessed and market value, taxes owed, sale type, status, cause number, account number, and the county's next sale date. Buttons jump to the map, Google Maps, or the full detail view.

Why does one card show an owner name and legal description while the next one doesn't? Because the county or its law firm published it for one listing and not the other. We show exactly what the source publishes for that property. We never fill a blank with a guess. Some counties list only the address, cause number, and amounts.

What is the deal grade? A quick read on how much equity sits between taxes owed and assessed value. A means taxes owed are a small fraction of value. F means owed is near or above value. It is a screen, not an appraisal.

3Filter down to one county

County, city, assessed value range, taxes owed range, sale status, severity, and deal grade all stack. Here, Harris County alone returns 356 properties.

4Deal grade filter

Same Harris list, A grade only: 73 properties where taxes owed are a small slice of assessed value.

5Property detail and Title & Liens

Click Property Details for the full record. Below the tax figures is the Title & Liens report: every mortgage, lien, deed, and release recorded against the parcel, pulled from county recorder records. This one shows 35 encumbrances and a nuisance flag.

Are liens wiped out at a tax sale? Some are and some survive. That is exactly why the report is there. Confirm which is which before you bid.

What does "nuisance property" mean? Five or more municipal liens filed by the city, such as mowing, debris removal, demolition, or code enforcement. It signals a pattern of neglect and recurring city charges.

6Every recorded item, with document numbers

Each entry has the type, the filer, the party, the legal description, the recording date, and the county document number so you can pull the instrument yourself.

Coverage: Title & Liens reports exist for researched auction parcels. Not every parcel has one yet. When a report is missing, the section says so rather than showing an empty list.

7Map view

Every auction property with verified coordinates is pinned. The overlay tells you how many are on the map and how many could not be placed.

Why are some properties missing from the map? We only pin a property where we have its real location. Properties without exact coordinates are counted in the overlay and left off the map rather than dropped somewhere approximate.

8Auction calendar

Confirmed sale dates built from active listings, with county list, property count, resales, total assessed value, and total minimum bids for each date. Below it, the basics of how Texas tax sales work.

Is the minimum bid the sale price? No. Minimum bid is the county's opening number: taxes, penalties, interest, and court costs. The property can sell for more. Where a county publishes actual results, we show the confirmed sale price and label it as such.

Does every county hold a sale every month? No. Dates shown are confirmed from listings. Always verify with the county tax office before attending. Some counties run online auctions.

9Upcoming tax sales by county

One tile per county: how many properties are scheduled, total taxes owed, online or in-person, the next sale date, and the sale location when the county publishes it.

Why does a county show $0 total taxes owed? That county's sale notice lists the properties but not the amounts. The listings are real. The amount simply isn't published in the notice, so we don't invent one.

10Struck-off properties

Properties that got no qualifying bid at auction and are now held by the taxing entity, available for direct purchase. Tiles show count, total value, and average minimum bid per county.

How do I buy a struck-off property? Directly from the taxing entity, usually through the county or its tax law firm, often at or near the minimum bid. The tile shows the office address when the county publishes it.

11Struck-off list for one county

Click a tile to open the full list. Orange County here has 223 struck-off properties with address, cause number, account number, assessed value, and minimum bid.

12Coming soon to auction

Properties with an active tax foreclosure judgment that have not been scheduled yet. This is the pipeline. Research these before they hit the courthouse steps.

13Pipeline detail for one county

Dallas County: 429 properties with judgments, each marked "Not yet scheduled," with assessed value, cause number, and account number.

14Past auction results

What sold, what got no bids, and what was pulled before sale, county by county, with sell rates.

Are these the actual sale prices? The dollar figures on the summary are county minimum bids. Inside a county's results, a property shows a confirmed sale price only when the county has published its results. Otherwise it says "Price pending." We don't estimate prices.

15Results for one county

Harris County: 150 sold, 13 no bid, 6 pulled. Each line shows the sale date, cause number, minimum bid, assessed value, and outcome.

16New this week

Everything added or updated in the last seven days, sortable by taxes owed, with county, value, owner, and the date it landed.

Why does owner say "Pending" on some rows? The county posted the property before the owner name. When the county publishes the name, it fills in. We don't pull owner names from anywhere but the county's own record for that property.

We build what our customers ask for

Most of what you just saw exists because a subscriber asked for it: new counties, map pins, legal descriptions, the Title & Liens report, the struck-off and pipeline views. When a customer tells us what would make the product more useful, we move on it fast, usually within days, not quarters.

Have a county you need, a field you want on every record, or a workflow the site should handle for you? Email support@taxdelinquenttexas.com. You will get a reply from the person who builds it.

Questions we get asked

How often does the auction side update?: Daily. The banner on the home page shows the last refresh.
Do you have owner phone numbers or email addresses?: No. County tax rolls and sale notices don't carry them, so neither do we. Take the owner name and property address from here to a skip-trace service if you need to reach the owner.
Can I export the data or get an API?: Not right now. If that would change how you work, tell us. Customer requests drive what gets built next.
Can you add a county I need?: Yes. We add counties on request. Don't hesitate to ask.
What does the subscription cover?: One plan, full access to both the auction side and the records side, every county. Cancel anytime.

Data is sourced from Texas county tax offices, appraisal districts, and tax sale law firms and is provided for informational purposes. Always verify with the county before bidding or purchasing.
