HB 1734 modifies Oklahoma's civil procedure rules for sheriff's property sales conducted via online auctions. It prohibits online auction platforms from charging buyers a "buyer's premium" (extra fees on top of the bid amount), requiring such fees to be disclosed upfront if used. The bill also caps all fees and costs charged by online auction platforms at $350 per sale. This directly affects sheriffs conducting online property sales, auction platforms, and buyers participating in these sales, effective November 1, 2025.
