If I purchase at a sheriff sale, who is responsible for back property taxes?
Taxes stay with the property. If you made the purchase, you are now responsible for the taxes.
How is a Sheriff's (foreclosure) sale conducted?
Sales are held as a public auction. Bidders must pre-register, and all registration must be done by 10:00 a.m. The judgment holder will provide the Sheriff's Office a starting bid, which will be announced at the time of the sale. Interested parties will then bid against each other. The winning bidder will then have two hours from the close of the sale to bring in a cashier’s check for the amount of his/her highest bid.
