White County, as Trustee, has completed their tax deed proceedings on real estate properties that were delinquent for 2021 and prior real estate taxes. The County, as Trustee, will now offer for sale the real estate obtained to the public. They will offer approximately 41 items through a sealed bid auction sale. All sealed written bids must be in the White County Treasurer’ Office located in the White County Government Annex, 323 E. Main Street, Carmi, Illinois 62821 no later than the close of business on December 12, 2025. All online bids must be submitted via www.iltaxsalebids.com no later than the close of business on December 12, 2025.
The sale of the lots should be a major benefit to both the Taxing Districts and the neighboring property owners. This sale will place the properties into the hands of the individuals who have an interest in owning them. The County, as Trustee, hopes that these new owners will both maintain the property and keep the rest estate taxes paid. By eliminating abandoned properties the appearance of the neighborhood would improve, and the value of adjoining properties should increase.
The required minimum bid is just $830.00 per item. All items will be sold to the highest sealed bid received on or before December 12, 2025. Complete bidder’s packs and sale catalogs are now available at the White County Treasurer’s office or online at http://www.iltaxsale.com
