Text

If the tax, penalty, interest, and costs are not paid before the time fixed for the sale, the sheriff shall sell the property or so much thereof as may be necessary, at the time and place fixed in the notice, at public auction to the highest bidder for cash. The sale is absolute and without right of redemption. The sheriff shall give to the purchaser, if demanded, a bill or certificate of the sale which transfers the property to the purchaser with the same legal effect as if executed by the owner. All public officials, departments of the state, or any of its subdivisions, and the courts thereof shall accept that bill or certificate as evidence of title.
