State Laws

Code of Laws of South Carolina, Title 12, Chapter 51 - "Alternate Procedure for Collection of Property Taxes". The property is sold to the highest bidder; however the officer charged with the duty to sell real property and mobile or manufactured housing for nonpayment of ad valorem property taxes shall submit a bid on behalf of the Forfeited Land Commission equal to the amount of all unpaid property taxes, penalties, and costs including taxes levied for the year in which the redemption period begins. The Forfeited Land Commission is not required to bid on property known or reasonably suspected to be contaminated. If the contamination becomes known after the bid or while the commission holds the title, the title is voidable at the election of the commission. If the property is not redeemed, the excess above the amount of taxes, penalties, and costs for the year in which the property was sold must be applied first to the taxes becoming due during the redemption period. (Sec. 12-51-55).
