COEUR d’ALENE — Kootenai County’s 2022 tax deed sale auction will be online, rather than in-person.

The auction will be 10 a.m. on Sept. 30 at https://kootenai.id.realforeclose.com.

Treasury specialist Amy Sweet said an online auction will allow more people to participate, including those with physical limitations.

When deciding next year’s format, the county will evaluate the success of this year’s online auction, as well as community feedback.

Prospective bidders must register online by 11 a.m. on Sept. 23. They must also pay a minimum deposit of $1,500.00 or 5% of their anticipated maximum bid, whichever is greater.
