Chautauqua, Niagara counties to hold online tax-foreclosed property auctions via Buffalo’s Auctions International

Chautauqua County and Niagara County are holding online auctions of tax-foreclosed properties conducted by Buffalo-based Auctions International, according to press releases distributed via PR.com.

Chautauqua County’s auction is scheduled to begin Friday, July 17, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. (EST). The county’s announcement indicates the sale will have a two-day closing period, with Day 1 including properties in the cities of Jamestown and Dunkirk.

Niagara County’s auction will open Wednesday, July 22, 2026 at 12:00 p.m. (EST). That sale is reported to begin closing on Wednesday, August 5, 2026 at 10:00 a.m. (EST).

Both counties named Auctions International — a Buffalo-based online auction company — as the vendor handling the sales. The PR.com notices say the auctions cover tax-foreclosed properties in the respective counties; prospective bidders should review the auction listings and terms with the auctioneer before participating.

This is a developing local government/real-estate matter; county property lists, registration and bidding procedures, buyer fees, and other sale conditions were not included in full in the distributed summary and should be verified through the counties or Auctions International.
