§ 21-33-61. Redemption of land sold

The owner, or any person for him with his consent, or any person interested in the land sold for taxes, shall have two years from the date of sale in which to redeem such real property from such sale, redemption to be made by paying the taxes, damages and costs, as provided by law for the redemption of land from tax sales, saving, however, to infants and persons of unsound mind, whose real property may be sold for taxes, the right to redeem the same within two years after attaining full age or being restored to sanity, from the municipality or any purchaser thereof, on the basis herein prescribed, and on their paying the value of any permanent improvements on the land made after the expiration of two years from the date of sale of the real property for taxes. Upon such payment to the clerk of the municipality, he shall execute to the person redeeming the real property a release of all claim or title of the municipality or purchaser to such real property, which said release shall be attested by the seal of the municipality, and shall be entitled to be recorded without acknowledgment, as deeds are recorded. Said release when so executed and attested shall operate as a quitclaim on the part of the municipality or purchaser of any right or title under said tax sale.
The term "taxes" as used in Sections 21-33-55 through 21-33-61 shall include special improvement assessments or any installment thereof that may be delinquent.
