Tax sales in Idaho
Channel
Tax deed sold by County Commissioners after ~3 years delinquency
Sale schedule
Annual per county (often spring)
Redemption basics
None after sale
Redemption periods and sale dates are state-level basics — counties deviate. Confirm against the county's own sale notice for the current cycle.
Wholesaling rules in Idaho — read before you market a deal
Own-account exemption (Idaho Code 54-2003) protects principals; IREC has fined wholesalers whose bird dogs made offers for them.
Education only — not legal advice. Confirm your approach with a local real estate attorney before you sign anything.
Local notes
County PDF lists are the v1 source; Kootenai/Ada counties carry most volume.
