Dodge County Sheriff Sales: How a Foreclosure Sale Works Here

In Wisconsin, a mortgage foreclosure is a court process that ends in a sheriff sale (Wis. Stat. ch. 846). Dodge County sheriff sales are held every Wednesday at 10 a.m. in the lobby of the Sheriff’s Office, 124 West Street, Juneau. Successful bidders need 10% of the bid, payable to the Clerk of Courts in cash, money order or certified check, with the balance due at confirmation, and they take the property subject to all legal liens, encumbrances and unpaid real estate taxes. (Dodge County Sheriff sales page) If the lender has filed, there are usually still options before the sale, and selling the house can be one of them. See how a Wisconsin sheriff sale works and selling before foreclosure.

Dodge County Tax Foreclosure: What Happens When Property Taxes Go Unpaid

Dodge County follows the in rem tax foreclosure process under Wis. Stat. 75.521. The county Treasurer’s page says a tax certificate (lien) is issued against a parcel on September 1 each year if the current year’s taxes are delinquent, and that the county sells foreclosed parcels by sealed bid, not auction, with a 10% deposit and payment due within 10 business days of notification. The Treasurer’s office is at 127 East Oak Street, Juneau. (Dodge County Treasurer foreclosure page) See our page on back taxes and liens.
