41-6-505. Foreclosure of tax deeds; sale procedures generally; redemption.

In pursuance of said order of sale, whether contained in said decree or issued thereafter, the sheriff of said county shall immediately advertise the property for sale, and shall sell the same at public auction, without appraisement, to the highest bidder for cash, and shall make a return of his proceedings thereunder within sixty (60) days from the date thereof; and said lands shall be sold in tracts or parcels with reference to the rights of all parties therein, as the court in said order of sale may direct; at which sale said lienholder may bid as any other person, but, in the event of becoming the purchaser thereof, he shall not be required to pay any money, except such sum only as his bid may exceed the amount due him under said decree; and, upon confirmation of said sale by the court, the said sheriff shall execute a deed as nearly as may be in cases of mortgage foreclosure, conveying to the purchaser of said property, his heirs and assigns, all the right, title, estate, claim and interest, both at law and in equity, of all parties to said action in and to said land, subject only to subsequent taxes; and, upon request of the purchaser thereof, a writ of assistance shall issue to place said purchaser in possession of said land; provided, that any person having an interest in said land, may redeem the land in which he is interested at any time before the confirmation of such sale by the court, by paying into court a sum of money sufficient to discharge the lien thereon, for the use of the lienholder, and upon such terms as to the payment of the costs as the court may direct.
