Newton, IL-(Effingham Radio)- From the Jasper County Tax Agent’s Office:
Jasper County, as Trustee, has completed their tax deed proceedings on real estate properties that were delinquent for 2022 and mobile homes that were delinquent for 2023 and prior real estate taxes.
The County, as Trustee, will now offer for sale the real estate and mobile homes obtained to the public. They will offer approximately 6 real estate items and 3 mobile home items through a sealed bid auction sale. All sealed written bids must be in the Jasper County Treasurer’s Office, located in the Jasper County Courthouse, at 204 West Washington Street, PO Box 107, Newton, IL 62448 no later than the close of business on October 2, 2026. All online bids must be submitted at iltaxsalebids.com no later than the close of business on October 2.
The sale of these lots and mobile homes should be a major benefit to both the Taxing Districts and the neighboring property owners. This sale will place the real estate and mobile homes into the hands of individuals who have an interest in owning them. The County, as Trustee, hopes these new owners will both maintain the property and the mobile homes and keep the taxes paid. By eliminating abandoned properties, the appearance of the neighborhood should improve, and the value of adjoining properties should increase.
The requirede minimum bid on real estate is $850, and $915 on mobile homes. All items will be sold to the highest sealed bid received on or before October 2. Complete bidder’s packets and sale catalogs are now available at the Jasper County Treasurer’s Office or online at iltaxsalebids.com.
