Advertising Delinquent Property

Mobile homes and real property, which are land and dwellings, with outstanding 2021 property taxes will be auctioned at the Delinquent Tax Sale on October 4, 2022. However, in the delinquency process, South Carolina State Law requires a few steps and notifications to occur before a property can be auctioned.

Over the past six months, multiple notifications have been sent via mail, including a delinquent certified notice and posting a physical sign on the property. If you still owe property taxes on a mobile home or real property, which are any land or dwellings, we are approaching the next step in the delinquency process.

The next step is the public advertising of delinquent property in the local newspaper and online. This will occur every Sunday for three consecutive weeks leading up to the Delinquent Tax Sale.

State Law requires that we place a physical sign on every property that may be auctioned to ensure that all methods of notification have been exhausted.
