Chapter 2127 | Sale of Lands
Section 2127.32 | Public or Private Sale.
Effective: January 13, 2012
Latest Legislation: Senate Bill 124 - 129th General Assembly
The real property included in the court's order of sale, as provided in section 2127.29 of the Revised Code, shall be sold either in whole or in parcels at public auction at the door of the courthouse in the county in which the order of sale was granted, or at another place, as the court directs, and the order shall fix the place, day, and hour of sale. If it appears to be more for the interest of the ward or the estate to sell the real property at private sale, the court may authorize the complainant to sell it either in whole or in parcels. If an order for private sale is issued, it shall be returned by the complainant. Upon motion and showing of a person interested in the proceeds of the sale, filed after thirty days from the date of the order, the court may require the complainant to return the order, if the premises have not been sold. Upon return of the order, the court may order the real property to be sold at public sale.
If upon showing of any person interested, the court finds that it will be to the interest of the ward or the estate, it may order a reappraisement and sale in parcels.
If the sale is to be public, the executor, administrator, or guardian shall give notice of the time and place of the sale by advertisement at least three weeks successively in a newspaper published in the county where the real property is situated.
