Alabama Live Bidding and Reports
This article only applies to Alabama live bidding. Other states may have a different type of live bidding. The Live Bidding page will be available when the live bidding begins for that specific county. For upcoming auction times and dates, please check out the following link: Upcoming Auctions. Also, live bidding will continue from day to day until all parcels are auctioned off. This typically excludes weekends and holidays.
Follow these steps to bid during the live auction:
1. Log in and make sure the drop-down at the top has the correct county selected, and click on the Live Bidding tab
2. Wait until the parcel you want to bid on comes up for auction
3. Place your Minimum Interest Rate amount in the "Place Bid" box
4. View your screen to see if you are winning, if you have been outbid, or if you have tied at 0%
