When the Jackson County delinquent property tax sale list was first advertised in September there were 140 parcels with back taxes owed. By the time last Tuesday’s tax sale began at the courthouse, that list had been pared down to 27 after property owners paid taxes owed prior to the sale.
Those 27 parcels owed a total of $86,036.11 in unpaid property taxes and fees. There were five successful bidders who paid a total of $630,042.62 for 24 parcels.
Three properties failed to obtain the minimum bid of taxes owed.
“The county is only interested in the taxes owed,” said Jackson County Auditor Kathy Hohenstreiter. “The amount paid over the taxes owed will go into a surplus tax sale fund.”
She explained that those properties sold on Tuesday can be redeemed by their owners by paying the taxes plus 10% for up to the next six months; after that the interest increases to 15%. Upon redemption, the surplus paid by the successful bidder will be returned to that bidder.
Successful bidders included:
•Shammah Investments LLC of Connersville, IN which purchased three properties.
•M&M Investment Group LLC of Cortland, IN which purchased 15 properties.
•SI Investments LLC of Carbondale, IL purchased four properties.
•Douglas Bledsoe of Cortland, IN who purchased one property.
•Chris Jewell of Franklin, IN which purchased one parcel.
