Tips for after you pull
- The list has no owner name. Use Auditor Search in the left menu to look up the owner with the parcel ID. We tested this link in Franklin County, where it opens the county auditor owner search.
Watch out for these
- Case Status can say ACTIVE on an item that was withdrawn. Trust the Auction Status and the section it is in.
- The Parcel ID on this site is plain text, not a link. Copy it, then paste it into the auditor search.
- The ZIP code can show nine digits, such as 432240000. The first five digits are the ZIP code.
- An Opening Bid can show $0.00. Do not read that as a real price. Check the case first.
- Small counties may have no upcoming sale day. Check the next months, then check again later.
