So long as the same remains unsold, the board of county commissioners shall manage the real estate purchased at resale in the name of the county; leasing, renting or using such property for the best interests of said county. The board is authorized to collect rents, enforce ejectments, and to make repairs or replacements on said real estate while the title remains in the county. Neglect of the board of county commissioners to acquire possession of such property shall constitute malfeasance in office and any county commissioner upon conviction thereof shall be removed from office.
