Treasurer's Deeds
IMPORTANT NOTICE TO LOGAN COUNTY TAX LIEN INVESTORS:
-- Tyler v. Hennepin County -- The United States Supreme Court, in a unanimous decision, determined that Treasurer's Deeds issued, after a property owners' failure to pay property taxes in Minnesota and other states that operated in a similar manner, were a violation of the Takings Clause of the Constitution since the value of the property was more than the debt owed.
During the Legislative session that followed, the Colorado Legislature passed House Bill 24-1056 to update and make Colorado's Treasurer's Deed process Constitution.

NOTICE TO A PROPERTY OWNER OF A PROPERTY FOR WHICH THE OPTION FOR TREASURER'S DEED HAS BEEN SOLD AT PUBLIC AUCTION: If the option for a Treasurer's Deed for your property is sold at a public auction for more than the total owed to the lawful holder of a tax lien on your property and to all other lien holders, please contact the Treasurer's Office after the auction because you may have funds due to you.
Policy Statement: After receiving numerous questions, reviewing several interpretations, reviewing the current inconsistences in the statues, the prior statutes, and consulting with legal counsel, the CCTPTA has adopted a statewide best practice concerning the tax deed process. Beginning August 1, 2025, until such time as clarifying legislation can be enacted or judicial guidance is provided, it is the recommended practice that during the redemption period, Colorado County Treasurers should only permit a purchaser to include in a redemption statement the purchase price plus Treasurer fees and costs incurred and applicable interest. Additional amounts, including but not limited to property inspections, attorney fees, appraisals, and insurance should not be included in redemption statements.
