Civil procedure: foreclosure; public sale of property being foreclosed by advertisement; allow to be held virtually. Amends secs. 3208, 3212, 3216 & 3220 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.3208 et seq.).
This bill allows foreclosure auctions in Michigan to be conducted online instead of only in person at the courthouse. It requires that notices for these sales be posted on the county's website and other platforms to ensure the public can find them. The law also mandates that online auction platforms be secure, reliable, and accessible to all interested bidders. Additionally, the bill updates the specific information that must appear in foreclosure advertisements to clearly indicate whether a sale will happen online or in person. These changes apply to mortgage foreclosures involving residential and commercial properties across the state.
