This appeal arises from the trial court’s grant of an interlocutory injunction preventing American Lien Fund, LLC “ALF” from barring Sharon Dixon’s right to redeem her real property under OCGA § 48-4-40 et seq., after ALF purchased the property at a tax sale. For the reasons that follow, we affirm. In 1976, Dixon acquired title to certain real property in Fulton County. In 2003, 2004, and 2005, tax fieri facias were issued by Arthur Ferdinand, Fulton County Tax Commissioner and ex-officio sheriff, for unpaid property taxes in each of those years. Ferdinand transferred the fieri facias to Vesta Holdings I, LLC “Vesta”, for levy and tax sale. See OCGA § 48-3-19; E-Lane Pine Hills v. Ferdinand , 277 Ga. App. 566 627 SE2d 44 2005. At an auction on September 4, 2007, ALF was the highest bidder at $300,000, and received a tax deed. On November 29, 2007, Dixon sued Vesta and ALF, and asserted, inter alia, that the tax fieri facias were transferred to Vesta, and the property to ALF, illegally. She sought redemption of the property under OCGA § 48-4-40 et seq., and an injunction against any attempt to dispossess her, foreclose on the property or collect on any lien on it, and to maintain the status quo. On September 12, 2008, ALF served Dixon with a notice stating that the right to redeem the property would be foreclosed on November 14, 2008. At a hearing on October 10, 2008, the trial court granted an interlocutory injunction preventing Vesta and ALF from foreclosing Dixon’s right of redemption. It appears that the injunctive remedy was not reduced to writing until May 4, 2009, when it was included in an order that dealt with several motions filed by Vesta, ALF, and Dixon. It is from this order that ALF timely brings this appeal.1
1. ALF contends that Dixon’s suit could not be maintained unless she had tendered the redemption amount set forth in OCGA § 48-4-422, an amount based on the amount paid for the property at the tax sale that ALF calculates that would be over $390,000. ALF notes that Dixon tendered to it $6,019.97, an amount she calculated based on the purported unpaid property taxes. ALF returned the tender.
