When the execution is against the property of the judgment debtor, it may be issued to an officer of any county where the judgment is docketed, but it must be issued from the county where the judgment was rendered. When it requires the delivery of real or personal property, it must be issued to an officer of the county where the property, or some part thereof, is situated. Executions may be issued at the same time to different counties. Real property levied upon must be sold in the county wherein it lies, by an officer of such county who must execute a certificate of sale to the principal as provided in chapter 15-19.
