Florida Tax-Deed Sale Wire — Broward County, Monday October 26, 2026
Broward County tax-deed sale — Monday, October 26, 2026
Broward County's next tax-deed sale is Monday, October 26, 2026, on the county's RealAuction portal (broward.realtaxdeed.com). The sale list published in September carried 30 lots for this date; as of October 17, 22 remain live in our tracking and 8 have already redeemed or closed out — a reminder that any lot can be redeemed by its owner right up to the sale.
The deadline that actually matters
Buyer deposits are due before the sale, not at it: the greater of $200 or 5% of your estimated high bid, per property, by ACH only, completed before 4:30 PM ET on Thursday, October 22. ACH can take up to four days to clear, so a deposit started on the 22nd is already late in practice. Winning balances, plus recording and doc-stamp fees, are due by 11:00 AM ET the next business day — and a winner's deposit is non-refundable once the sale concludes.
Lots we're watching
Opening bid vs. BCPA 2026 Just/Market value (live BCPA reads, October 17 — county values are not appraisals, and every lot is re-checked before this publishes). Verdicts are the desk's Oct 17 underwriting verdicts: county anchor plus each property's own sales history, not full neighborhood comp sets.

A low opening bid against county value is not a discount — it is where bidding starts. Tax deeds can carry surviving municipal liens, code issues, and title questions that county value says nothing about. Screening is the work.
