Ad valorem taxes; revise certain provisions regarding disposition of excess proceeds from sale of land for.
HB 625 would amend Mississippi law by removing a two-year window allowing landowners to claim excess funds from tax sales if their property isn't redeemed. Currently, landowners can request payment of amounts exceeding unpaid taxes within two years; this bill would eliminate that period. Counties would retain all excess funds from such sales without needing to refund landowners. This directly affects landowners with properties sold for unpaid ad valorem taxes who fail to redeem within the current two-year timeframe.
