13 Homes in Foreclosure Going to Sheriff's Sale in July
More than 150 properties have gone to auction since last July
Thirteen Strongsville homes in foreclosure are scheduled to go to sheriff's sale in July, according to the Cuyahoga County Sheriff's website.
In June, five homes were sold at auction. Six were withdrawn from sale list by orders of the court and one was withdrawn due to bankruptcy. One house went to sheriff's sale but got no bids.
According to the site, 154 properties have gone to sheriff's sale in the last year.
Some properties may be added or deleted during July.
Building Commissioner Tony Biondillo said inspectors check each foreclosed home every three months, and make special weekly visits in the summer to be sure the grass is being mowed.
If not, the city does it and bills the owner.
"We physically inspect every one of these properties quarterly," Biondillo said.
All the houses on the July list are described as single-frame dwellings with attached two-car garages:

I thought the reason people bid on these type of homes was that they could get them at a good, low price.
So, I would say 14384 Bennington Drive doesn't fit that criteria:
appraised value $105,000, minimum bid $110,000

Good catch, Lyn. I fixed the typo. It should be $165,000 for the appraised value.

That would make it a better buy! I wondered who would buy it for more than the appraised value.
