Counties hold a yearly tax sale; parcels nobody buys can later be offered at a commissioners' certificate sale. The owner usually has one year to redeem after the county tax sale (120 days after a commissioners' certificate sale).

Mortgage foreclosures: judicial. Mortgage foreclosures are court cases, followed by a sheriff's sale.
