# What amounts are included within the minimum bid for Tennessee tax sales?

Starting bids for each property are set at the sum of the amount of taxes, interest, and costs due

on the property. Bids increase from that starting bid amount, until no bidder submits a higher

bid before the close of the auction. Highest bid wins.
