How Pennsylvania Tax Sales Work

Sale Type
Tax Deed
Pennsylvania sells the actual property deed at auction. The winning bidder receives ownership of the property (subject to certain surviving liens and title clearing requirements).
Redemption Period
No redemption
Deed issued at county tax sale (upset sale or judicial sale). No post-sale redemption after judicial sale.
Avg Property Tax Rate
1.58%
Above the national average (1.1%). Higher tax rates mean larger opening bids and lien amounts.
Homestead Rules
Special Rules Apply
Homestead exclusion varies by school district.
Investor Notes for Pennsylvania:
PA has a two-stage process: upset sale (liens may survive) then judicial/repository sale (free and clear). Properties at repository sales are often deeply discounted. Philadelphia has its own tax lien process. High property tax rates mean large opening bids.
