Land & Farmland Auctions

85 auction sites · part of 390 auction sites UX Search covers

Farmland, ranches, hunting land and lots sell at auction across the country, especially in the Midwest. These are the land auction firms and government land sellers.

Governments sell land in several ways, and the sale type matters more than the acreage. Tax sales and tax deed auctions sell parcels whose owners stopped paying property taxes, often at a fraction of assessed value but with the title questions that come with that. State land offices and the Bureau of Land Management sell surplus public land in scheduled sales. Counties and cities sell vacant lots and former facility sites. Farmland, by contrast, mostly sells through private auction houses in the farm states, where a 160-acre quarter section can bring millions in a single evening.

The auction sites on this page cover all of those: the farmland houses in the Midwest and Plains, the online land marketplaces, and the government programs. For any parcel, the survey, the access, the water and mineral rights and the back taxes are the questions to settle before the bid, and the listing or the county recorder has the answers.
