Tax Forfeited Land

Beltrami County manages over 147,000 acres of tax forfeited land. The most important thing about tax forfeited land is to know who has ownership – whether it is USA Forest Service managed, State of Minnesota (DNR managed) or State in Trust (Beltrami County Managed). This information is available on our County Online Mapping program. Tax forfeited land is managed for recreational, natural resources, conservation, water/wetland protection, as well as wildlife protection while also affording a steady economic return to the taxing districts.
Beltrami County does not hold regularly scheduled land sale auctions nor do we provide a listing of tax forfeited lands. What we do is offer to take the name and address of a person inquiring about purchasing tax forfeited land and advise that person we will place them on our Land Sale mailing list. When a land sale is then scheduled, we will advise everyone on that list that the public auction information is available on our county website.
