Newton, IL – Jasper County, as Trustee, has completed their tax deed proceedings on real estate properties that were delinquent for 2020 and mobile homes that were delinquent for 2021 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 9 real estate items and 4 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, 204 W. Washington Street, Newton, Illinois 62448 no later than the close of business on August 16, 2024. All online bids must be submitted via iltaxsalebids.com no later than the close of business on August 16, 2024.
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 that 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 required minimum bid on real estate is $834.00, and on mobile homes is $915.00. All items will be sold to the highest sealed bid received on or before August 16, 2024. Complete bidder’s packets and sale catalogs are now available at the Jasper County Treasurer’s Office or online at iltaxsale.com.
