What is the Auditors Forfeited Land Sale?
Forfeited Land Sales, usually held twice each year, are auctions of properties ordered forfeited by the Fairfield County Court of Common Pleas for non-payment of real estate taxes. While the delinquent taxes are erased from the properties sold, would-be bidders are encouraged to research each parcel because any outstanding liens are transferred with the property and are the responsibility of the buyer. Terms and conditions of the sale and a complete list of properties scheduled for auction are publicized prior to each sale in area newspapers and on this web site.
