Spread is not profit.It compares the opening bid to the county's assessed value, which is not market value — R.C. 5715.01: taxable value is the percentage of true value the tax commissioner sets by rule, capped at 35%. The rule has been at the 35% ceiling for decades and applies uniformly statewide, with no classification by property type and no county overrides. Open a parcel to run the full max-bid analysis, which accounts for the assessment ratio, surviving liens, quiet title, and holding costs.
Confirmation is primary; quiet title common if chain issues or insurer demands additional comfort beyond sheriff’s deed.
