Delinquent tax auction turns into bidding war at Winchester Hall
About 75 people bid on 95 properties owed on last year’s taxes. The top bid was 300000 for the Peter Pan Inn property owned by Baumgardner Foods Corp. County Treasurer Brittain said bidders pay the sale price to cover back taxes and receive a sale certificate, with no deed or rights until the owner redeems by paying plus 12 percent interest within six months. Most bidders seek investment gains, not foreclosures, as bids climbed in a lively, tennis-match style auction led by Philip Larkin.
