Terms of Sale:

Logan County’s upcoming sale uses a sealed-bid auction process. In a sealed-bid tax deed auction, each bidder submits one bid for a property instead of bidding against other buyers in a live room. The catalog will state the minimum bid for each item. A bidder must submit a bid that equals or exceeds the listed minimum bid.

ILTaxSale explains that sealed-bid buyers do not personally appear at a live auction site. Instead, buyers submit the bid form and payment according to the catalog instructions. Bids that arrive after the deadline do not count. For sealed-bid and open-bid sales, ILTaxSale says buyers must include full payment when they submit the bid, and payment must come by certified funds or personal check.

Bidders should read the Logan County catalog before submitting any bid. The catalog will control final terms, deadlines, forms, payment instructions, mailing instructions, and parcel-level details.

How to Participate:

Start by visiting the Logan County auction page on ILTaxSale.com and checking for the Logan County catalog about 30 days before the August 7, 2026 sale date. Review each parcel carefully, compare the minimum bid, research the property, and check the location before you bid.

Next, complete the sealed-bid form or purchase contract from the catalog. Follow the catalog instructions for payment, mailing, delivery, or online bid submission if ILTaxSale gives that option for Logan County. Since a sealed-bid auction gives each bidder only one bid, choose your bid amount carefully.

Before you submit a bid, call the Logan County Treasurer’s Office or Joseph E. Meyer & Associates if you need help with the catalog, payment method, bid deadline, or bid delivery instructions.

The Logan County tax deed auction gives real estate investors and buyers a way to review county tax deed properties through a sealed-bid process. This format can help buyers study the catalog, research each parcel, and submit a bid without attending a live auction.

Buyers should not rely on the minimum bid alone. Always research the property, check parcel access, review taxes, inspect the location when possible, and confirm title concerns before placing a bid. After a buyer wins, ILTaxSale recommends getting a title commitment from a title company and checking for liens or title defects.
