City of Port Jervis tax sale, 2026 season

Verified

Port Jervis publishes its tax sale terms in full; it just does not publish a date. The city's Terms of Sale, issued under Local Law No. 1 of 1973, the city charter, state the whole machinery: the City Clerk-Treasurer sells the properties listed for unpaid taxes and assessments at public auction to the highest bidder, each purchaser signs a memorandum of purchase at the sale, and the Clerk-Treasurer delivers a certificate of sale under Article VI, sections 20 to 28 of the charter.

No dated sale was published in the sources read, so this page carries the terms as the verified record and the calendar as not published. When the city sets a sale, these are the terms it runs on.

Research City of Port Jervis parcels before you bid

A sale list gives you the parcels, the date, and the opening terms. It does not give you the owner, the value, or the rest of the picture: liens, foreclosure status, and parcel history. PropertyRadar is the data platform for that layer. It carries owner records, assessed and market values, foreclosure and tax data, and property history for parcels across City of Port Jervis, searchable by address, owner, or county, including parcels that never reach a sale list.

How City of Port Jervis tax sales work

The Clerk-Treasurer sells at public auction. Under the charter, the properties listed for unpaid taxes and assessments are sold to the highest bidder. A purchaser who does not pay the taxes, assessments, interest and expenses at once, right after the parcel is sold, loses it: the parcel is offered again.
The buyer signs and takes a certificate. At the sale each purchaser signs a memorandum of purchase agreeing to pay the bid amount under Article VI, section 20, and the Clerk-Treasurer then delivers a certificate of sale under sections 20 to 28.
The buyer has duties after the sale. The charter requires the purchaser to give written notice of the sale to any mortgagee of the parcel and to file an affidavit of compliance, with proof of that service attached, per the city's terms.
Redemption runs two years. The balance falls due within five days after the redemption period expires. If the parcel is not redeemed, then at any time after two years from the sale the Clerk-Treasurer executes and delivers a deed of conveyance to the purchaser, under Article VI, section 29.
The city can hold parcels back. The charter lets the Common Council vote to exclude parcels from the public sale and bid on them for the city itself, so a listed parcel is not certain to reach the room.

How registration works

Not published in the terms read. The city's published sale document is its Terms of Sale, and it states the auction, the memorandum of purchase and the certificate, with no separate bidder registration requirement.

Terms: what a bid actually costs

The city's terms publish the payment rule, the certificate and the deed path, and leave deposit and premium unpublished. The rows below carry them as the city publishes them:

Payment	The purchaser pays the taxes, assessments, interest and expenses at once after each parcel is sold, or the parcel is reoffered. The balance falls due within five days after the redemption period expires, per the charter terms.
Deposit or down payment	Not published in the sources read.
Buyer premium	Not published in the sources read.
Deed type	A deed of conveyance from the City Clerk-Treasurer, delivered after two years from the sale if the parcel is not redeemed, under Article VI, section 29 of the charter.

Before you bid

Port Jervis is a terms-first page: the charter machinery is published and the date is not. Two rules shape any bid. Payment is immediate, at the sale, parcel by parcel; a winning bid that is not paid on the spot sends the parcel back into the room. And the Council can hold parcels back and bid for the city, so work from the final list the Clerk-Treasurer publishes for the sale itself, not from an earlier delinquency list.
