Notice to Prospective Tax Sale Bidders

In accordance with Act No. 133, approved by Governor Ridge on December 21, 1998, P.L. 1368, No. 542, prospective purchasers at all tax sales are now required to certify to the Tax Claim Bureau as follows:

• A successful bidder shall be required to provide certification to the Bureau that, within the municipal jurisdiction, such person is not delinquent in paying real estate taxes owed to taxing bodies within Lehigh County; and
  
  
• A successful bidder shall be required to provide certification to the Bureau that, within municipal jurisdiction, such person is not delinquent in paying municipal utility bills owed to municipalities within Lehigh County.
  
  
• This law is in effect and will be recognized in conjunction with any Lehigh County tax sales conducted after August 9, 2011.

• Prospective bidders must register the date before the sale. No registration will be taken on the day of the sale. Certification forms are available in the Tax claim Bureau and the Lehigh County Tax Claim Bureau Website (www.Lehighcountytaxclaim.com).
  
  
• Pursuant to Section 601(d) of the Real Estate Tax Sale Law, 72 P.S. Section 5860.601(d), I hereby certify that I have not had a landlord license revoked in any municipality within the County of Lehigh, and I further certify that I am not bidding for, or acting as an agent for a person whose landlord license has been revoked.
  
  
• A successful bidder shall not tender a bad check to the Tax Claim Bureau when purchasing a property in any sale. If this should occur that bidder shall not be permitted to bid on any properties in future sales and will be referred to the Lehigh County District Attorney’s Office for prosecution of the Pennsylvania Crimes Code, . 18 Pa. C.S.A. Section 4105 which may lead to a Conviction of a Felony of the Third Degree.
  
  
• I acknowledge that immediately upon conclusion of the sale, a deposit of $1,000.00 or the bid amount, whichever is higher, must be made via certified funds, money order or cash to Northeast Revenue Service, LLC by each successful bidder immediately upon the closing of bidding for each parcel.  Failure to make said deposit will result in nullification of the bid and the property will be re-auctioned to a new bidder. In the event that the deposit is made but the bidder does not return to pay the balance by 4:00 p.m. the day of the sale, the bid will be nullified, the deposit will be forfeited, the bidder will be barred from future sales, and the property will be offered to the second-highest bidder or relisted at the next sale. The remainder of the successful bid must be paid by the close of business (4pm) on the day of the sale via certified funds, cash or credit card.
