How foreclosure and tax sales work in Greenwood County
South Carolina mortgage foreclosures go through the courts. After judgment, the Greenwood County Master-in-Equity (or a special referee) sells the property at public auction, usually on the first Monday of the month, after the notice runs in a local newspaper for three weeks.
The high bidder pays a 5% deposit on sale day. When a deficiency is demanded, bidding stays open 30 days. County tax collectors hold a separate delinquent tax sale once a year, usually in the fall; the owner can redeem a tax-sale property for 12 months.
Our South Carolina data comes from official county Master-in-Equity and tax sale lists and from a plaintiff law firm's published sale list. It does not yet include every sale, so some sales in the county are not listed; more coming.
