Tax deeds sold in Connecticut are purchased with a one year right of redemption. Within a couple weeks after the sale, the investor will receive a deed to the property from the tax collector. The deed will be stored unrecorded for a period of one year from the date of the sale. if the property owner does not pay all delinquent taxes, interest, penalties, and fees by the end of the twelve month redemption period, all redemption rights are terminated and the purchaser takes possession.
