Whiteside County, as Trustee, has completed their tax deed proceedings on real estate properties that were delinquent for 2022 and mobile homes that were delinquent for 2023, and prior real estate taxes.
The County, as Trustee, will now offer for sale the real estate and mobile homes obtained to the public. They will offer approximately 17 real estate items and 16 mobile home items, through a sealed bid auction sale. All sealed written bids must be in the Whiteside County Treasurer’s Office–located in the Whiteside County Courthouse, 200 E. Knox Street, Morrison, Illinois 61270–no later than the close of business on Friday, August 21, 2026. All online bids must be submitted via www.iltaxsalebids.com no later than the close of business on Friday, August 21, 2026.
The sale of these lots and mobile homes should be a major benefit to both the Taxing Districts and the neighboring property owners. This sale will place the real estate and mobile homes into the hands of individuals who have an interest in owning them. The County, as Trustee, hopes that these new owners will both maintain the property and the mobile homes and keep the taxes paid. By eliminating abandoned properties, the appearance of the neighborhood should improve, and the value of adjoining properties should increase.
The required minimum bid on real estate is $810, and on mobile homes is $915. All items will be sold to the highest sealed bid received on or before Friday, August 21, 2026. Complete bidder’s packets and sale catalogs are now available at the Whiteside County Treasurer’s Office or online at www.iltaxsale.com.
