* A $5,000.00 cashiers check payable to the Sheriff of New Castle County is required to enter bidding at the auction. If you do not have cash or a cashiers check, your bid will not be accepted. Your $5,000.00 check will only be collected if you are the successful bidder.
* Title History, Tax Lien, Public Record and Bankruptcy Info research on EACH property is the responsibility of the bidder.

Winning Bidder Responsibilities

* Sales are FINAL and Deposits are non-refundable.
* The balance of mortgage foreclosure bids are due the third Monday of the month after the sale. Balance of bid payments are payable via cashiers check to the Sheriff of New Castle County. Confirmation of all sheriff sales occurs the Friday following the third Monday of the Month after sheriff sales.
* It is the policy of the Sheriffs Office to encourage the high bidder of a real estate foreclosure sale to deed the property purchased within a reasonable amount of time. Therefore, any real estate purchased at a Sheriff Sale and not deeded within 6 months after confirmation will result in a return of the Superior Court Writ indicating that the property was purchased, paid for but not deeded. The accumulated transfer tax will be capitulated to the State, and/or County, and/or City, and/or Town.
The high bidder acquires an equitable interest in the property as soon as the bid is accepted. The high bidders legal responsibility to maintain the property is not diminished by this policy.
* You may have to evict occupants at your own expense.
