Government Sale Types
Auctions
When bidding on a property, bids are entered as a Maximum Bid. Upon entering a bid amount, the Bid Calculator will display the total cost for the transaction. Auctions vary and bids may be per acre, or total bonus; check bid amounts accordingly as a submitted bid is binding.
Bids may not be withdrawn, retracted, or reduced.
Sealed Bids
When bidding on a sealed bid property, enter the bid amount to display the Total Cost calculation amount. To submit the bid, the user must enter a password as prompted. A green banner will appear confirming the receipt of the sealed bid. An email will be sent to the email address on file to confirm the bid has been accepted, however, no amounts will be listed in the email. It is recommended to take a screen shot of the page once the bid has been placed. The sealed bid will not otherwise be visible as activity in the user's account, as sealed bids are encrypted. A user may outbid themselves if multiple bids are submitted.
Bids may not be withdrawn, retracted, or reduced.
