El Dorado November 2026 sale — 31 parcels of real property, and 111 timeshare weeks
What this is
Most of El Dorado's sale is not land. Next to its 31 real-property parcels, Bid4Assets lists 111 timeshare intervals at South Lake Tahoe resorts, each a week of use rather than a parcel. The county runs those as a separate auction, and they carry no assessed value anywhere in county GIS, because an undivided interval has no polygon to assess. They cannot be screened, so this table covers the real property and the timeshares are counted, not rated.
Every one of the 31 matched the county assessor's parcel layer. That layer gives us each parcel's land and structure values and its acreage. Seventeen open at a quarter of assessed value or less. Six are assessed under $1,000 and carry no usable ratio at all. The starkest is a 0.01-acre strip the assessor values at $30, opening at $1,500, which is fifty times the county's own figure for four hundred square feet. Apart from those six, none opens above assessed value.
Nine of the 31 were already offered at the November 2025 auction and did not sell. Four come back with a lower opening bid and four with a higher one. One is unchanged. A parcel coming back at a lower number has already been shown to the market once.
Twenty-three are vacant land and eight carry a structure. The largest single item is a retail building the assessor values at $3.41 million, opening at $395,600.
How to read the columns
Bid ÷ assessed is the opening bid divided by the county's total assessed value — lower means a bigger paper discount. It is a screen, not a verdict: assessed value is a county figure, not a market appraisal, and in California it is anchored to the last change of ownership, so a long-held parcel can be assessed far under what it would fetch. Screen puts each parcel in a bracket from that ratio, and Flags names the specific things that cost money. Item is the number the county's own list uses. Use the copy button beside any APN to grab it.

What the screen says
- Deep discount
- Opens at a quarter of the county's assessed value or less.
- Discount
- Opens between a quarter and 60% of assessed value.
- Near value
- Opens between 60% and 100% of assessed value — little headroom.
- Nominal assessment
- The county's total assessed value here is under $1,000, which is not what the parcel is worth — it is a leftover from an old nominal-value transfer that Proposition 13 never re-based. Dividing a real opening bid by it produces a large number that means the assessment is tiny, not that the price is outrageous. There is no usable ratio here, so this parcel is not ranked against the others.
- Offered before, didn't sell
- This parcel was in the county's previous sale and drew no bid. The market has already seen it once and passed. A lower opening bid this time is the county trying again, not a discount someone missed.
- Structure on record
- The county's records show something built here: improvement value on the assessor's roll, or a year built on its parcel map. That can be the asset or it can be the liability — a derelict building is a demolition bill, and an occupied one is a possession problem.
- Paper lot
- Under a tenth of an acre with nothing built on it. Too small to build on under most zoning — the classic legacy-subdivision lot that costs money to own and cannot be developed or easily resold.

Source: El Dorado County Tax Sale Auction List for November 6, 2026 (BOSApproval_WebsiteList, published 2026-07-31), with the live lots and opening bids re-read from the county's Bid4Assets storefront on 2026-10-16, joined to the county assessor parcel layer (ParcelBase, County of El Dorado), with the county's published November 2025 notice and results used to identify re-offers. All 31 live real-property parcels matched to the county's own assessor layer by APN, 31 of 31, then screened by opening-bid-to-assessed-value ratio. The 111 timeshare intervals return no record in that layer and are excluded from the screen rather than assigned a value. Assessed value is a county figure, not a market appraisal — a screen, not a verdict. The county's own list prints conflicting opening bids for nine item numbers.
