How this sale works

Surplus public land

An agency is disposing of land it no longer needs: excess right-of-way, school or state trust parcels, or surplus sites offered by sealed bid or auction.

  • Minimums are usually an appraised value, and bids are often sealed with a public opening.
  • Parcels can be odd-shaped remnants with access, zoning or easement quirks; the bid package explains them.
  • Deposits, closing deadlines and reservation of mineral or access rights are set in the offering.
