Drew County delinquent tax list

Short answer: Drew County has two delinquent tax lists. The official one is published by the Commissioner of State Lands before each scheduled sale, free to download, and it lists parcel numbers and amounts owed with no owner contact. The year-round one is the delinquency record underneath it, where 86 (estimated) owners near Drew County currently carry a distress signal. Arkansas is a deed state, so a winning bid at the sale takes the property itself.

Working the Drew list

What actually matters in a county this size, at this level of distress, under Arkansas timelines.

Off the main road

Drew County ranks 43 of 75 covered Arkansas counties and holds about 0.7% of the state's flagged properties. Most buyers never scroll this far down the state, which is the entire argument for working it.

One of the densest counties in the state

At 50.8 flagged properties per 10,000 residents against an Arkansas figure of 38.5, Drew is in the top quarter for distress density. Stacked-signal owners are common here, and those are where the deepest discounts sit.

All of Drew County

The scan centres on Drew County and reaches 25 miles out, widening to 50 when the list runs thin. In a county this size that usually spans several towns, each with its own price level, so read the estimated value on each row rather than the discount alone.

The Arkansas clock

Foreclosure here typically runs 3 to 5 months from filing to sale. The tax clock and the mortgage clock run independently, so check both before you decide how hard a deadline an owner is actually facing.

Why Drew investors work it before auction day

No bidding war

At the sale you are one of a room full of bidders on the same parcel. Months earlier you are the only person who called.

You can see the house

A private sale means an inspection and a clean title search. Deed auctions in Arkansas rarely give you either.

The owner keeps something

An owner with equity who sells early clears the tax debt and walks away with money. At the sale, they usually walk away with nothing.

Drew County delinquent tax list FAQ

How do I get the Drew County delinquent tax list?

Two lists exist and they are not the same. The official one comes from the Commissioner of State Lands, is published as a PDF or spreadsheet before each scheduled sale, and disappears between sales. The year-round one is the delinquency record itself, which is what LowBaller compiles: roughly 86 properties around Drew County currently carry at least one distress signal, ranked by how much pressure the owner is under.

Is there a free Drew delinquent property tax list PDF?

Yes. The Commissioner of State Lands publishes the pre-sale list free of charge, usually as a PDF or a downloadable spreadsheet tied to a specific sale date. It gives you parcel numbers and amounts owed. It does not give you owner contact details, an estimated value, or any indication of which owners would actually take a low cash offer.

When is the Drew County tax sale?

Drew County publishes its own schedule, and it moves. The Arkansas pattern is the thing that holds steady: The Commissioner of State Lands auctions tax-delinquent parcels after county certification. Check the county's pre-sale notice close to the date, because the list shrinks daily as owners redeem.

Can I buy Drew tax-delinquent property before the auction?

Yes, and it is usually the better trade. There is no bidding war, the owner clears the debt with a clean sale instead of a forced one, and you are not buying blind. The window is the months between the delinquency appearing in the record and the sale being scheduled, which is exactly the period this list covers.

What does a winning bid actually get you in Arkansas?

Arkansas is a deed state, so a winning bidder takes the deed itself, so a winning bid transfers ownership of the property. The deed transfers at the sale. Whether the former owner can still redeem afterward depends on Arkansas law and the kind of sale, so read the county's sale notice before bidding. That difference matters more than the discount: in a lien state you are buying a debt with a yield, and in a deed state you are buying a house.

How far below market do Drew deals close?

The strongest current leads near Drew County support start bids around 43% under estimated value. Across the whole list, hard distress such as a scheduled auction or a stacked tax lien closes 25 to 45% under market, while softer signals like long-distance ownership land closer to 15 to 30% under. Drew runs denser in distress than the Arkansas average, so stacked-signal owners, the ones who accept the widest discounts, turn up more often here than in a typical county in this state. Equity sets the ceiling, because an offer cannot go below what clears the owner's mortgage.

How many tax-delinquent properties are there in Drew?

About 86 properties within 25 miles of Drew County currently show at least one motivation signal in public records, and tax delinquency is among the most common. That works out to 50.8 flagged properties per 10,000 residents, against 38.5 across Arkansas as a whole, and makes Drew the number 43 of the 75 Arkansas counties covered here by population. That figure moves daily as owners pay, redeem or fall further behind.

Do I need a Drew address to search, or can I search the whole county?

Either. Run the scan on any Drew ZIP and you get the full ranked list for the surrounding area, or check one specific address to see whether that owner carries a distress signal. The scan is free; the full list opens with a 7-day trial, and credits are only spent when an owner's phone number comes back.
