Thank you for your interest in properties held by the Land Bank Authority. Our mission is to acquire underutilized properties and put them back into a productive use status.

Land Bank Authority Process for Acquiring Property

If you are interested in a property currently held and listed by the Land Bank Authority, please fill out the Property Bid and Proposal Form next to that property. Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis. The Land Bank Authority holds the right to choose the buyer based on the alignment of intended use of the property with the goals developed by the Land Bank Authority Board.

If you are interested in a property not held by the Land Bank Authority that is eligible for purchase by the Land Bank Authority, please fill out the Property Interest Form below.

Proposals are accepted on a rolling basis. Only completed and accurate applications turned in 7 days prior to the next Land Bank Board Meeting will be considered. Please check the Land Bank Board Meeting tab to find out when the next scheduled Board Meeting will take place. The Land Bank Authority Board holds the right to choose the buyer based on the alignment of intended use of the property with the goals developed by the Land Bank Authority Board. The top 3 goals for intended use are:

1. Conveyance to local government entities for public use;
2. Neighborhood nonprofit entities seeking to obtain the land for low-income housing; and
3. Other individuals and entities intending to produce low-income or moderate-income housing.

Other intended uses are still encouraged to apply
