Nevada is a mixed tax state because it conducts tax deed and tax lien sales. The interest rate is 12% but most of the counties only handle tax deed sales. The redemption period is 120 days for a vacant land while a developed land is 2 years. The tax auctions vary on each county.
One must at the tax sale to be able to buy which is done by competitive bidding. Unsold tax certificates are available over the counter after the tax sale.
