Ashtabula County Property Foreclosures

by Tom Sopko – Board Director

In January 2015, the Ashtabula County Treasurer notified us that approximately 100 properties in the Rome Rock Association were in the foreclosure process. The Directors did not recognize any of these as being properties in the application process for the Landbank. However, we are only aware of a handful of properties that have been requested as Landbank properties. It is not a requirement to notify the Board if you are interested in acquiring a property through the Landbank.

I contacted the head of the Ashtabula County Landbank to see if any of these 40 or so properties were in the Landbank. They got back to me with there are too many properties to check. “Any of the foreclosures in Roaming Shores are eligible for the land bank. If you know of an interested end user on any of those properties, please have them fill out an application.”

The following is a lot number list of the properties scheduled for foreclosure. If you are interested in any of these properties, it is recommended that you fill out a Landbank application with the County.
