Nebraska Counties
Real Estate Auction in New Jersey
Nebraska is a tax lien state. This means that if property taxes are not paid, the county can sell the property to pay off the overdue amounts. However, the owner has the right to redeem the property during a redemption period.
Tax Lien Process
The tax sale process begins when the property owner fails to pay property taxes for two years. Real estate taxes are due on December 31st of the year in which the taxes are levied and are delinquent on April 1st and August 1st of the year following the levy (in counties with more than 100,000 residents) or on May 1st and September 1st (in counties with less than 100,000 residents). The county treasurer will then send the property owner a notice of delinquency and the opportunity to pay the taxes to stop the process. If the property owner does not pay the taxes, the county will sell the property at a tax sale.
The County Treasurer must publish a list of the properties to be sold in a newspaper once a week for three weeks prior to the date of sale, beginning the first week in February. The list will also be published online (Nebraska Dept of Revenue). The treasurer also has to post a copy of the notice in a conspicuous place in his or her office.
The tax sale is typically held on the first Monday in March. The property is sold to the highest bidder, who receives a certificate of purchase. The certificate of purchase does not give the buyer immediate ownership of the property. The owner has the right to redeem the property during a redemption period.
The redemption period in Nebraska is three years. During the redemption period, the owner can pay the full amount of the taxes, plus interest, and reclaim the property. If the owner does not redeem the property within the redemption period, the buyer of the certificate of purchase becomes the owner of the property.
Foreclosures in Nebraska
In Nebraska, lenders may initiate the foreclosure process on a mortgage in default using the judicial foreclosure process. Judicial foreclosure involves a court proceeding to obtain a foreclosure order. Here’s an overview of the foreclosure process in Nebraska:
- Filing the Lawsuit: The lender files a lawsuit against the borrower in default to seek a court order to foreclose on the property. The court determines the amount of debt owed by the borrower and provides a short time for the borrower to pay off the delinquent amount.
- Advertisement of Property for Sale: If the borrower fails to pay within the specified time, the clerk of the court advertises the property for sale. The court may order the entire property or a part of it to be sold.
- Delay of Sale Order: The court may delay the order of sale for up to nine (9) months after the judgment if the borrower files a written request for a delay within twenty (20) days after the judgment is rendered. If no request is made, the order commanding the sale of the mortgaged property will be issued within twenty (20) days after the judgment.
- Right to Cure the Default: The borrower has the right to cure the default at any time while the lawsuit is pending by paying the delinquent amount owed on the mortgage, along with any accrued interest and costs. However, even if the default is cured, the court may still enter a decree of foreclosure and sale, which can be enforced if the borrower defaults again in the future.
- Public Notice of Sale: The sheriff is responsible for giving public notice of the time and place of the foreclosure sale. The notice is posted on the courthouse door and at least five other public places in the county where the property is located. Additionally, the property is advertised for sale once a week for four (4) weeks in a newspaper published in the county.
- Court Confirmation of Sale: After the foreclosure sale takes place, the court must confirm the sale. Once the court confirms the sale, the borrower has no right of redemption. This means that the borrower does not have the right to reclaim the property after the sale by paying off the debt.
