MN Tax Forfeiture Settlement

The Land and Minerals Department offers a variety of auctions, sales and contracts on or for tax-forfeited land, including:

Tax-Forfeited Land Sales - tax-forfeited properties are first offered at public auction. Properties that do not sell at auction may be available over the counter, first come, first served on an Available List or may go back to public auction.

Former Shoreland Lease Lot Sales - the lakeshore lots only, separate from improvements, will be offered at public auction. The minimum bid is the appraised land value. The purchaser must purchase the improvements from the leaseholder.

Gravel Sales - as directed by the County Board, the County Auditor (through the Land and Minerals Department) may lease tax-forfeited land to individuals for the removal of gravel.

Timber Sales - the county conducts two public oral timber auctions, an intermediate oral timber auction, a sealed bid timber auction and a black spruce top sealed bid timber auction each year.
