    Sec. 8. (a) Real estate, including chattels real, taken by virtue of an execution, shall be sold at public auction at:

        (1) the courthouse of the county in which the real estate is located; or

        (2) another location that is reasonably likely to draw higher bids for the real property.

    (b) If the estate consists of several lots, tracts, and parcels, each lot, tract, or parcel shall be offered for sale separately. No more of any real estate shall be offered for sale than is necessary to satisfy the execution, unless the real estate is not susceptible of division.
