Sherriffs waiting for warm weather
-
Ah, David, your weekly postings make me want to go out, hunt down a Sherriff, grab him/her around the neck, and hold a blow torch to his/her bottom to warm him/her up, and demand an immediate sale of some kind, to ease your wont to bid. Thank you for the weekly postings, they always give me at least one thing new to view. ;D

Both of these were cancelled. Lyndhurst was cancelled last minute. After spending a lot of time doing due diligence on this one, I don't think it would have been much of a deal but it certainly an interesting set of facts and a good example of why you really need to understand how sheriff sales work (i.e., what you are actually buying) before bidding.
It seems that the buyer bought the house for about 500k in 1991 and decided to undertake an extensive reno around 2009. Sometime around the reno it looks like the owner took out a 3rd mortgage for 660k at 10.5% interest (yikes). All-in the mortgages would be more than 1 million to discharge.
The owner seemingly paid an initial contractor 475k. There was a falling out and it looks like the renos were only partly completed. The contractor sued the owner since there was still a balance owing under the contract. The court sided with the contractor and awarded 94k + legal fees (65k). The owner didn't pay this and a writ was filed. The owner's lawyer also filed a writ, presumably for unpaid legal fees, for about 55k. Meanwhile, the owner hired another contractor to finish the work. The new contractor quoted 660k+HST. The contractor claims to have sent accounts for about 400k but was only paid about 275. The new contractor then had a construction lien of 132k added to the property. So, assuming the lien is valid, the existing owner was on the hook for mortgages of ~1.05 mill, a lien for 132k + interest, legal fees of about 115k AND the house still isn't finished.
Based on the contractor #2's quote, there is still probably 300k of work to be done. The owner seems to have dumped almost 1 million into this project, excluding legals, and the house is still not done.
Did I mention the owner is a lawyer...
Based on my due diligence, I had already given up on this but if this one went all the way to the sale, I expect a buyer would have showed up and bid something like a million on this place not understanding what they were buying (i.e., that the mortgages and the construction lien do not magically disappear from title after the sale). When it comes to sheriff sales, it seems that 18 times out of 20 they are cancelled and 1 time out of 20 someone who doesn't understand what they are buying "wins". Starting to wonder why I bother with these. Doing proper due diligence on these takes a lot of time and expense.

It all seems to make sense except that I am not sure about the mortgage part. I think unless you have a mortgagee insider there's no way to have up-to-date mortgage outstanding specifics. Nonetheless, assume it's all true - 1.05 mil outstanding mortgage amount, plus 132k+ lien, plus 115k+ legal fee, plus 300k outstanding work to complete, why the hell did he redeem? and how?

Ok, the "how" question can be easily answered. From what I have seen, this is an auction with reserve. Assuming the reserve amount is set reasonably, it would really take a fool to go much further above the reserve. I kinda think the Sheriff has thin ice to walk on too. ;)
-
I think the "why" did they redeem is easy to answer. The writs were about 265k and I don't think anyone could justify paying that much for the equity in a sheriff's sale (apart, of course, from a newb who didn't understand what they were buying). There is so much uncertainty in these sales and, as Jayz mentioned, the mortgage amounts aren't necessarily exactly known to the buyer.
If the full amount of the writs wasn't realized at the sale, the owner is still on the hook for the rest. Better to try to sell on MLS and get real market value and hope you can cover all the debts.
Kind of amazing that someone that bought property in the 90s in Toronto seems to have lost money in T.O. real estate.

Interesting...ex doesn't show on title, nor do any encumbrances, however she filed a notice of matrimonial home....does this mean she has a half interest and is kicking him out persuant to a divorce judgement ....ie. she is forcing him to sell or move out. Expect to see this one on the MLS shortly, don't expect anyone to bid, if he couldn't live with her, then probably no one else could either.

This is obviously why this is a sherriff sale not a tax sale. You can use the sheriff for protection. ;D I am out because I have trouble handling one lady which I do not do very well.
