Summary: LD 1841 — An Act To Modify The Process Of Selling Tax-Acquired Properties

Overview

  • Bill number: LD 1841
  • Title: An Act To Modify The Process Of Selling Tax-Acquired Properties
  • Introduced: April 30, 2025
  • Subject: Foreclosure, Property Tax Procedures, Tax-Acquired Properties
  • Status: Dead (pursuant to Joint Rule 310.3; placed in Legislative Files)

Purpose and intent

The bill’s stated aim, by its title, is to modify the process by which properties that have been acquired through property tax foreclosure are sold. The available materials do not include the bill’s full text or specific policy provisions, so the exact changes to sale procedures (e.g., timing, notice, bidding methods, or eligibility) cannot be detailed here. The bill would have affected how tax-acquired properties are transferred or offered for sale.

Key provisions (as described by the material)

  • The substantive provisions are not provided in the summary.
  • Based on the title, potential areas of change could include:
    • Procedures for timing of sales or auctions
    • Notice requirements to affected property owners or the public
    • Methods of sale (auction, sealed bid, online sale, etc.)
    • Eligibility criteria for buyers or bidders
    • Post-sale remedies or redemption periods

Note: No specific statutory language or provision-by-provision details are included in the available materials.

Who would be affected

  • Property owners with tax liens or foreclosures (potentially subject to sale)
  • Local government/tax assessors or tax collectors involved in the sale process
  • Prospective buyers and investors seeking tax-acquired properties
  • Municipalities and any state or local agencies administering tax-foreclosure procedures

Procedural posture and timeline

  • 4/30/2025: Referred to the Committee on Taxation; printed and ordered for concurrence
  • 4/30/2025: In concurrence; ordered sent forthwith
  • 5/22/2025: Work session held
  • 5/22/2025: Voted ONTP (Ought Not To Pass) by the committee
  • 5/28/2025: Reported Out ONTP
  • 5/29/2025: Pursuant to Joint Rule 310.3, placed in Legislative Files; status appears as DEAD

Significance of status

  • “ONTP” indicates the committee did not recommend passage.
  • “DEAD” means there is no active path for passage in the current legislative session unless revived by special action or a future session.
  • Placement in Legislative Files confirms the bill is no longer advancing in its current form during this session.

Bottom line

LD 1841 aimed to modify how tax-acquired properties are sold but, based on available actions, did not progress and was ultimately placed as a dead bill in the legislature. The precise changes proposed are not included in the provided materials.
