DTMB Real Estate Services

Can I bid on this property?

No. We have an application process, not a bidding process. However, you are welcome to submit an offer for consideration on the application.
Does the State Land Bank have a list of properties that are available?

Yes. You can access available properties through our Property Search page. From there you can search by County, City or Township, Address, Keyword, or Parcel number.
I found a property that I am interested in purchasing, what is the next step?

The next step is to submit an application with the required documentation. Applications are available on our Property Search website or you can call 517-335-8212 to have one mailed to you.
What Is The Difference Between An Adjacent Lot Application And A Property Conveyance Application?

The Adjacent Lot Applications are for applicants who own the residential property adjacent to the property that they are interested in purchasing. It must share at least a 75% common boundary line and not be considered buildable by the city or local zoning/building codes. The Property Conveyance Application is for all other applicants.
What is the State Land Bank Authority?

We are a state agency that works to create a positive economic impact in Michigan communities by returning land to productive use. We work in a coordinated manner to foster the development of property to promote and support land bank operations at the county and local levels.
