Back from tender, I am the third. If not for the FRO, I would be the winner now On the other hand, the winner told us he wouldn't worry too much about the FRO. I am not sure if it is an experience talk or just sheer ignorance. Anyway, good luck with him.

I am a little bit of confused by this case. Separation agreement (2008) asked husband to pay 650 per month since 2008, but the FRO lien was just registered on 2015, when the daughter is already 21. Can you believe how late it is. Also, the property was joint tenanted and the separated couple agreed to transferred the property to husband, who   is supposed to pay the wife about 32k it by the time of separation, which was 2008. I don't know if that payment happens, but at least the title search shows the property is still joint tenanted under both name, which means the transfer never happened.

Title search shows

Order under the Family Responsibility and Support and is a charge against the interest in the land. No value has been assigned in the document. To find out the amount of the interest, please contact the Family Responsibility Office.

What do I do to find out the how much is registered? I called FRO but they would not share that info with me.

Questions and Answers / Re: routine check before submitting a tender

Thanks very much, Dave and Matt. Those are the greatest tips.

But what if the properties are really far and I don't have time drop by. You would suggest to pass it? BTW, the property looks very decent on google street.

Questions and Answers / routine check before submitting a tender

« on: March 03, 2015, 02:17:12 AM »

Hi Guys

What kind of routine check do you run before submitting a tender. I know a title search is a must. But how can you know if the property is a grow-op home, or a haunted house or a place, where somebody was murdered before. Anyways, can you share some tips to verify this sort of things? Thanks in advance.

Property Information / Re: 30 Culham Street, Oakville Results

Anybody wanna share a reasonable explanation for the 385k tender, which I think this property is not worth, not even close. I think someone is trying to beat any offer just to protect the current owner.

Hi everyone

If there are more than one tenderer, do all of them have to sign the direction provided by municipality to prepare tax deed.

Thanks

Questions and Answers / how fast can I know I am the highest tenderer?

« on: December 02, 2014, 09:39:36 PM »

Hi

After the tax sale is over and I turn out to be the highest tenderer, how fast can I know that?

OTS says the municipality would notify by mail, would that take a few days? Can I call to find out then I can pay the rest and begin registering tax deed?

Hi Everyone

I have hard time figuring out how much I should tender for a tax sale property. Does anyone know some sort of rule of thumb equation to come up with a reasonable figure for the tender? Thanks in advance

Questions and Answers / Re: tax sale in distance

I've had the municipality send me the documents by mail, and I signed them in front of a commissioner of the oaths, then mailed them back.
My wife and I were NOT driving 9 hours just to sign some documents. Worked out fine for us.

Thanks. I would go for "power of attorney" way. But does anybody know the municipality would accept power of attorney to let the authorized person sign for me?

Questions and Answers / tax sale in distance

« on: November 20, 2014, 05:10:29 PM »

Hi

Me and my friend are going on a tax sale in GTA area. He is in town but I am in Ottawa. Also, I am not available to sign the tax deed when the tax sale is over. My question is

If we want both of our names to put on the tax deed, is there a legal way to have one person to delegate and sign for both?

Thanks in advance.
