Ohio Code 1313.27 – Return and confirmation of sales
Reports of sales of real property and personal property made under sections 1313.21 to 1313.31, inclusive, of the Revised Code shall be returned to the probate court within the time prescribed. After having carefully examined the return, if satisfied that the sale has been legally made, the court shall confirm it and order the assignee or trustee to make a deed to the purchaser for the property sold. The court also may require in the order that deferred installments of the purchase money be secured by mortgage before delivery of such deed. When the buyer offers to pay the full amount of the purchase money in cash, if best for the interests of the creditors of the assignor, the court may order that it be accepted, and direct its distribution.
