Foreclosure Sales and Resales

First Tuesday of every month at 10 a.m. (unless holiday, then following business day).

The Montgomery County Constables no longer conduct live tax sales and resales but will continue to conduct execution sales in accordance with Texas law. Delinquent tax foreclosure sales and resales will be conducted by the County Constables through an online platform operated by Real Auction at www.realauction.com. This change was approved by County Commissioners Court July 27, 2021.

Constable Sales are open to the public. Bidders must register through the Real Auction website (www.realauction.com). All of the rules and procedures for tax sales are noted at the Real Auction website. Free bidder training is also provided through the website.
