Hinds County publishes no purchase amount. Its results name the winning
bidder and the parcel but carry no price, so no dollar total is shown for this county
anywhere on this site, and its buyers are ranked by certificates won rather than by
spend. A $0 would be arithmetically produced and factually false.

How tax sales work in Mississippi
| What you buy | The tax collector's certified sale list vests in the purchaser a perfect title subject to the owner's right of redemption, with no right of possession during the redemption period; possession and a deed come only if the land is not redeemed. Miss. Code Ann. § 27-41-79, read August 30, 2026 in HB 1198 (2025), committee substitute |
|---|---|
| How long the owner has to redeem | The owner or any person interested in the land may redeem at any time within two years after the day of sale, by payment to the chancery clerk; minors and persons of unsound mind have two years after majority or restoration. Miss. Code Ann. § 27-45-3, read August 30, 2026 in SB 2124 (2026), as introduced |
| What the owner pays to redeem | Redemption costs the taxes for which the land was sold plus costs, 5% damages on the amount of those taxes, and interest at 1.5% per month or fraction thereof on taxes and costs from the date of sale — expressly regardless of the amount of the purchaser's bid. On distribution the 5% damages go to the county and the balance to the purchaser. Miss. Code Ann. § 27-45-3; § 27-45-1, read August 30, 2026 in SB 2124 (2026), as introduced |
| When the sale is held | The sale is held on the last Monday of August, continued day to day between 8:30 a.m. and 4:30 p.m. until completed, with a collector's option to advertise after February 15 and sell on the first Monday of April instead; a sale made at the wrong time or place is void. Miss. Code Ann. § 27-41-59(1), (3); § 27-41-55, read August 30, 2026 in SB 2859 (2025), as introduced |
Each row above is the statute itself, not our summary of it. The full Mississippi statutory fact table carries every field, the operative text word for word, what each cited document is, and the fields we could not verify. Note that a statutory sale day is a fact about the law, not a scheduled sale — dates a county has actually published are on the calendar only.

Who buys in Hinds County
Ranked by certificates won, not by dollars — several of the counties we track publish no purchase amount, and a dollar ranking would place their largest buyers last. Showing the top 25 of 212 buyers. The 25 rows shown account for 20,706 of the 24,148 certificates won by all 212 buyers ranked; the remaining 187 buyers are not shown. 106 of all 212 buyers ranked, not only the 25 shown, are individuals rather than companies; they are named as winning bidders and counted, and no contact or registry detail is published for them. As published marks a name the county itself printed with visible damage or a known misspelling; it is kept exactly as printed, because a corrected name is one nobody can find in the county's file. Overbid is the amount bid above the taxes due on a certificate, as the county's results record it. It is not the purchase price, and it is not a post-sale surplus ledger.
How the rows add up
The county's document holds 27,630 result rows. 24,148 went to a named buyer and are counted above. 3,482 were struck to the state or county — nobody bid, and the taxing authority took the certificate. Those are not purchases and are excluded from every buyer figure on this site.
