Foreclosure
List / Foreclosure Auction Information |
|
The
information available here pertains to the
current list of property foreclosures and
information regarding property tax foreclosure auctions.
|
|
|
|
| Real
property with a tax year three (3) or more
years delinquent is subject to foreclosure. To
redeem the property after foreclosure
proceedings begin, all years' taxes, interest,
penalties, and foreclosure costs must be paid (RCW
84.64). |
|
| The
only way to purchase a property from foreclosure
is to bid at the annual auction held in January
of each year. The auction occurs in an online environment.
http://www.bid4assets.com
facilitates our auction activity under contract
with the County Treasurer. If you experience
technical problems with the auction web site you
can call 1.877.427.7387 for assistance. |
|
| A minimum bid will be solicited
for each property. This bid must include all
taxes, interest, penalties and foreclosure
costs. The auction is electronic and full payment is
due according to the terms noted at the bid web
site. In person payment is by cash or certified
funds. All other settlement is by cash wire. |
|
| The
successful bidder will receive a Treasurer's
Deed without any expressed or implied warranty.
Thurston County does not warrant any property
suitable for any use, nor do they make any
claims regarding easements, covenants or
restrictions. All parcels are sold "as
is" and all sales are final. Potential
purchasers should seek the advice of a real
estate attorney if additional information is
needed. |
|
| Thurston
County does not issue Tax Lien Certificates as
Washington state is not a Tax Lien state. |
|
| The
2012 Foreclosure sale will be held January 7,8,9 2013
and continue until properties are sold or the
Treasurer closes the auction. |
|
| Any
questions about the foreclosure process should

the Thurston County Treasurer's Office at
