Properties are offered for sale AS-IS, WHERE-IS, IF-IS, with all faults, and with no

makes no representations or guarantees as to the accuracy or completeness of the descriptions of
the parcels listed above, information being only from land records. All information provided is not
guaranteed for either its completeness or accuracy.
The real estate shall be sold in gross and not by the acre. The conveyance will be subject to possible
rights of parties in possession.
Title research and opinions concerning any subject property are at the option and expense of the
purchaser and cannot be provided by the Special Commissioner. Purchaser shall also be
responsible for title insurance, survey or any other costs of purchase and transfer.
The risk of loss from fire, casualty, or otherwise, and all liabilities of ownership of the property pass
to Purchaser upon the conclusion of the sale.
Announcements made the day of sale take precedence over any prior written or verbal terms of sale.
Special Commissioner reserves the right to withdraw from the sale any property listed and reserves the
right to reject any bid declaring "No Sale" after the last bid received on each parcel.
A bidder's deposit of ten percent (10%) of the purchase price, in cash or certified funds made payable to

The owner of any property listed above may redeem it at any time before the date of the sale by paying all
accumulated taxes, with penalties and interest, the attorney's fees and costs thereon, including the cost of
publication hereunder.
Redemption of a property by a non-owner does NOT convey title to the property to the Redeemer, nor
does such redemption alter the status of title to the subject property. Redemption merely prevents the sale
of a property.
