Indiana tax sale: around 31¢ on the dollar
Median winning bid at the Indiana tax sale (6 sales, Sep 2021 to Sep 2026) was 31¢ per $1 of county assessed value (Indiana assesses at market value), across 3,056 sold parcels; middle half 13¢ to 46¢. Every parcel type is included; the opening bid is only where bidding started. These bids bought tax sale certificates the owner can still redeem, not deeds.
From the auction platform's own closed-sale results. Shown only where at least 30 sold parcels carry a value. It is a screen for the county, not a price for any one property — drive the property and check title before you bid.
