Notes

Arkansas COSL tax-deed county. Faulkner County Collector certifies long-delinquent parcels to the Commissioner of State Lands; COSL runs the public auction (Faulkner listed 9/23/2025 on cosl.org schedule) and online post-auction sales. Limited warranty deed; quiet title expected. County collector does not auction tax deeds independently.

Spread is not profit.It compares the opening bid to the county's assessed value, which is not market value — Arkansas assesses real property at 20% of true, actual or market value (A.C.A. § 26-26-303(c)); § 26-26-304 fails a county whose ratio study falls outside 18–22% of full fair market value. Measured across 1,669 Arkansas parcels carrying both figures, assessed/market was exactly 0.2000 on every one. Open a parcel to run the full max-bid analysis, which accounts for the assessment ratio, surviving liens, quiet title, and holding costs.
