How sheriff sales work

A sheriff sale is a court-ordered foreclosure sale run by the county sheriff. The winning bidder usually pays a deposit on the day and the balance within a set number of days. Properties are sold as-is, generally without an interior inspection, and many sales are postponed or cancelled before the sale date, often more than once.

Whether New Jersey sells tax liens or tax deeds, and how long an owner can redeem, is in our tax lien vs tax deed state guide.

Deposits, deeds and title checks are covered in how to buy government land at auction. More parcels: real estate auctions near me and land auctions near me.
