SAN DIEGO (CNS) - Registration begins Friday for this year's 26th annual online property auction.
The county will have 723 properties available for bids during the auction, which runs from April 26 to May 1. The county puts properties up for auction only if they have been in default for at least five years. The annual sales have generated more than $7.5 million in sales each of the last two years.
``Bidders love the ease and convenience that our online auction brings,'' McAllister said. ``Last year, we had 1,134 registered bidders and sold 701 properties for $7.5 million.''
Bidders must register for the auction at sdttc.mytaxsale.com between Friday and April 18 to place bids on properties. Bidders must also pay a refundable $1,000 deposit and a $35 processing fee, which is not refundable.
