What Is a Nebraska Land Auction?
A Nebraska land auction is a competitive public auction where various types of real estate, including Nebraska farms, ranch land, and agricultural land, are sold to the highest bidder. These auctions, often held by an auction company or county tax collector, may feature properties like dryland cropland, irrigated acres, recreational properties, and tax-defaulted property. They attract a wide range of interested parties, from those looking to invest in Nebraska’s fertile land to those interested in settling tax liens or purchasing tax-forfeited land. Auctions are popular throughout the state, especially near major rivers like the Missouri, Platte, and North Platte.
Nebraska land auctions showcase diverse land types, including farmland, hard grass pasture, and recreational land with wildlife habitats or sand beaches. Some properties even include prime building sites and acres of wheat base near large cities or county roads. Potential buyers can review parcel numbers, redemption amounts, prior sale history, and detailed information about the land, including legal descriptions and any outstanding property taxes or liens.
The Auction Process
For those considering buying or selling at a Nebraska land auction, the process begins with Lashley Land. We’ll discuss your property’s needs, including county requirements for delinquent property sales, tax liens, and certified funds for payment. After a preliminary assessment, our specialists determine if the property is a good candidate for auction.
Once approved, you’ll enter an agreement with Lashley Land specifying the auction date, location, and any additional provisions, such as required certified funds (money order, cashier’s check, etc.). Our team handles a robust advertising campaign, promoting on our auction website, local newspapers, and other media outlets, providing prospective buyers with all the necessary information to make informed bids. A 6-week marketing window is typical, giving bidders time to complete bidder registration, review taxation codes, and secure financing.
What to Expect at a Nebraska Land Auction
At the auction, properties are typically sold in large parcels, with detailed descriptions including acreage, soil types, location, and additional information. Whether at an in-person or online auction, each bidder should be prepared to sign a purchase agreement, meet auction terms, and submit a deposit. Auctions may offer a range of property types, from ranch land and rural estates to tax-forfeited lands, with each property adhering to state law and county regulations.
Three Types of Land Auctions
Absolute Auction
The property sells to the highest bidder with no reserve, often attracting competitive bids due to Nebraska’s strong real estate market.
Minimum Bid Auction
Bid amounts must start at a pre-set price, providing sellers a sense of security while still allowing for a winning bid.
With Reserve Auction
Bidding concludes only if the seller accepts the final bid, allowing flexibility in cases involving redemption amounts or complex tax liens.
Why Choose This Method?
Selling agricultural real estate by auction offers benefits like a predetermined timeframe, competitive bid environment, and assurance for all parties involved. This structured process often achieves top-selling prices and avoids lengthy negotiations. Buyers at a Nebraska land auction are well-prepared, ensuring an efficient transaction that adheres to county and state requirements.
