Questions and Answers / Re: Minimum tender

« on: September 14, 2005, 11:05:23 AM »

"The minimum bid posted by the Municipality includes all taxes and costs of conducting the sale (advertising, admins fees, etc.) to that point in time.  However, the taxes for example may have only been posted for a portion of the year to the point of the sale.  If for example the sale occurs in February and no taxes have been levied yet, then there will be an added amount for January and February that you will be required to pay-up on closing."
 
That makes total sense. Thanks for clearing that up

Does anyone know if and/or where you can find out what a property sold for in a past tax sale?  Yes, I am just full of questions

What is the proper method of submitting a bid? What all needs to be included? Does anyone know if you can place bids if you are a Canadian but are currently living outside of the country?

Questions and Answers / Minimum tender

« on: September 12, 2005, 08:17:21 PM »

I am a real newbie to tax sales.  Does anyone know how the minimum tender figure is arrived at? Initially, I thought it was the amount of outstanding taxes owing on the property, but after reading tax sale notices it seems that the buyer is responsible for paying all due taxes on top of the amount he tenders. Is that right or am I confused

Frank,

Thank you for the information. After a few hours of searching through the archives, I was able to find exactly what I was looking for.

If a minimum tender amount on a property was $24,000, any guesses as to what it may have sold for?

Is it possible to get view tax sale notices prior to 2004? If so, who should I contact or is it online somewhere?
