How many redemptions are free per calendar year for those permitted to redeem?

• A. One
• B. Two
• C. Three
• D. Four

Answer: (B)

Redemption rights let someone with an interest in a property cancel a tax sale lien by paying what’s owed (taxes, interest, penalties) and thereby keep the property. To keep the process fair and manageable, the rule provides a limited number of free redemptions each year for those entitled to redeem. In this case, that limit is two redemptions per calendar year. This encourages timely action by those who stand to lose the lien while preventing repeated, cost-free redemptions from overwhelming the process. If additional redemptions are needed in the same year, they would typically incur fees or additional charges per the applicable rules.
