How these sales work

Buying government property in Cook County

Illinois is a tax lien state

Illinois counties hold an annual tax sale where investors bid down the penalty rate on delinquent taxes and receive a certificate of purchase; unsold parcels can be picked up at later scavenger sales.

Redemption period
Owners commonly have two to two and a half years to redeem depending on property type, and the buyer must petition the circuit court for a tax deed after the period expires.
Interest or penalty
The penalty rate is bid down from a statutory ceiling and accrues every six months, so a low winning bid means a low return.
Full Illinois guide and FAQ →

Land bank or city-owned property sale

A public land bank or city agency is disposing of property it already holds, usually acquired through tax foreclosure. Prices are set or negotiated rather than auctioned.

How to buy government surplus land and lots →

Government REO home

A home a federal agency or government-sponsored enterprise took back after a foreclosure on a loan it insured or owned, now resold through its own program.
