How property is sold here

Midland County follows Texas's rules, with its own calendar and offices. Read the Texas guide for how the state works.

Tax sales

Texas does not sell tax liens; Midland County sells the property itself after a delinquent tax lawsuit and judgment. Taxes are due by January 31, and penalty and interest start on February 1 on unpaid bills. Tax foreclosure sales are public auctions on the first Tuesday of the month, with notices posted by the tax attorneys and the officer making the sale.

Assessed values

The Midland Central Appraisal District sets values each year, and tax collections begin around October 1 with payment due by January 31 of the next year.

Transfer tax
