Bidding Process
The auction format will be an on-line public auction to the highest bidder. Please note the times displayed are Central Standard Time (CST). Bidders are urged to review the auction details. It is the responsibility of the Bidder to follow-up on the status of his/her bid. When purchasing property for sale, funds or monies of the eligible bidder should be readily available; CMS is not obligated to wait for eligible Bidders to arrange for financing and such action will result in termination of sale and award made to next eligible bidder. To maximize the return to the taxpayers, the State will automatically extend the auction in 3-minute increments until one clear uncontested winning is awarded.
Consideration of Bid
It is the policy of CMS to monitor bids and other activity. CMS reserves the right to reject any and all offers at its sole discretion.

Unusual offers of bad faith, offers from inactive or unknown parties or organizations are subject to investigation and cancellation at any time. If a posted offer is deemed unacceptable to CMS for any reason, the eligible Bidder with the next highest bid, who is in compliance with the online terms and conditions, will become the current high offer. It is a violation of law to submit offers using a false name or any other fraudulent information, and such offers may not be processed, even if CMS initially accepts your electronic offer. Be aware that if you provide false information, CMS will remove the fraudulent bid from the database and pursue all legal means available to State of Illinois to prosecute.
