• Introduction to Buying State Owned Surplus and Excess Real Property
The goal of this site is to promote awareness of State land sales and to direct interested buyers to the agencies who have excess or surplus property to sell. You will find access to land sale or auction schedules, rules for bidding and other land sale information provided by those State agencies. The Real Estate Division of the Department of Management and Budget is charged with implementing Governor Granholm's Executive Directive on land use and space optimization. Major tasks include analyzing current holdings and interests through the development and implementation of a statewide strategic real estate plan, and the disposal of surplus state owned property.

DNR Property Sales
The DNR manages State-owned lands acquired through different sources. Most of these properties are dedicated as State Forests, State Parks and Recreation Areas, Water Access Sites and Wildlife Areas; and are not available for exclusive private use or for sale. However, periodically parcels are determined to be "surplus" and are offered for sale by auction to the public. The proceeds from these sales are used to acquire additional lands as replacement for the properties sold.
