Civil procedure: foreclosure; public sale of property being foreclosed by advertisement; allow to be held virtually. Amends secs. 3216 & 3220 of 1961 PA 236 (MCL 600.3216 & 600.3220). TIE BAR WITH: SB 527'25
SB 528 allows foreclosure sales of homes or property to be conducted virtually instead of only in person. It amends Michigan law to require that online sales use secure, reliable platforms accessible to all bidders, with the highest bidder paying within 24 hours (excluding weekends/holidays). This change directly affects homeowners facing foreclosure, mortgage lenders, and county sheriffs conducting sales, as it provides an alternative method for public sales under Michigan's foreclosure process. The bill does not alter eligibility for bidders or the 24-hour payment requirement but updates the procedural mechanism for holding sales.
