How these are sold

Repository sale: property unsold at the judicial sale that the Tax Claim Bureau sells by written bid at any time. Published by Delaware County Tax Claim Bureau (Treasurer's Office).

Fill in the Repository Bidder Application/Bid form and the notarized bidder affidavit (both on the county page).
Take the form to the township or borough where the property is: the municipality must give a written consent letter for the sale.
Bring the form, consent letter, affidavit and a money order or cashier's check for your bid (minimum $1,000) to the Tax Claim Bureau; from 2026 a $250 per-parcel fee also applies, plus deed recording costs.
You may not owe delinquent taxes or year-old utility bills anywhere in Pennsylvania. Chester City lots have their own conditions of sale.

Repository properties went unsold at the county's upset and judicial sales; the Bureau sells them 'as is' and does not give clear title.

Most are vacant ground ('GRD'). Sales are final; get a title search and check zoning before you bid.

A low minimum bid is not a bargain by itself: liens are usually paid off by the owner (you earn interest, not the property), auctions are bid up, and cheap parcels are often small, landlocked or unbuildable. Read the county's terms and check title before you bid.
