There is no set time for the county to foreclose on the property via a tax sale, according to this article purchasers of the tax lien certificate have to wait 5 years, as the owner has a redemption period after the tax sale, so you could be waiting a while, and if I'm not mistaken, you have to pay the taxes each year until the 5 year period is over, then you have to file for a deed or file a lawsuit to quiet title.https://smartasset.com/mortgage/how-to-buy-tax-liens-in-cali...Hope this helps,Dustin

It's a range and depends on the property type, location, end condition and rental strategy.
