Real Property Auctions
Please see the Real Property Sales to see the most current listing of sales. Sheriffs office sales are judicial foreclosures (or executions) on real property to satisfy a monetary judgment. The order to sell comes from the Superior Court Clerk. Only the judgment debtors interest in the real estate is sold and is subject to all existing liens and encumbrances. The Sheriff's Office provides only limited information about the sale property, which includes the address and legal description. It is not possible for potential purchasers to view the interior of the structure prior to the sale.
The property sold may have a redemption period from eight months to one year. "Redemption" means that the owner may pay back the amount bid at the sale plus interest, taxes, etc. in order to redeem the property and become the owner again. If you have legal questions about this procedure, you should contact your attorney for direction, or read the Revised Code of the State of Washington pertaining to Redemption (RCW 6.23).
