by which any lands, tenements, or other realty sold shall be

granted, assigned, transferred, or otherwise conveyed to or vested

in the purchaser or purchasers, or any other person or persons, by

his or their direction, when the consideration or value of the

interest or property conveyed, exclusive of the value of any lien or

encumbrance remaining thereon at the time of sale, exceeds One

consideration, which may involve money or anything of value;
