Wayne County Land Bank

The Wayne County Land Bank Corporation was formed in 2006 through an agreement between the Wayne County Treasurer and the Michigan Land Bank Fast Track Authority. Prior to the formation of the Detroit Land Bank Authority (DLBA) in 2009, the Land Bank held in its inventory all Wayne County properties that were neither sold at foreclosure auction nor acquired by the state, city, or county through the right of refusal process. Since the formation of the DLBA, the Land Bank holds all of these unclaimed properties with the exception of those located in Detroit. Currently, the Land Bank holds title to over 1,000 properties throughout Wayne County.
