If anyone could be so kind and share if there were any bids on Item 10, 561 Robinson st. Dresden and save me a call.
Signed....The seller.     Wondering if anyone paid that did not do all the homework as I did when i bought it years ago at another tax sale.
( Maybe I have a check coming my way).

Thanks for the earlier reply g2020.  I totally agree with your assessment. I also thought it would redeem, but it looks like tomorrow someone will be the proud new owner of a big mess.  I was still considering getting cute with a  low ball bid for a couple days there, thinking an arrangement could probably be made.  But it is just too messy combined with other "Hazards" that exist on that property.   I will not be bidding it.      A gift for anyone planning a run at the Potato patch. You may want to be aware what is proposed next door.

Been quite awhile since I graced this board.  But being one to always keep an eye out for any opportunity I find myself back and its good to see the regulars still here.     I see one of the better properties in the upcoming Haldimand bid (  Brad Pitt starred in "  A River Runs through it") seems to have a very significant lien on it from Superior Family Court.  I remember seeing this a few years back on another property in Tiny and I passed on bidding that one because of it.  My question for discussion if it pleases anyone is   "would the lien from the family court survive the tax sale ?

The wrecking yard went for 80k  second place 70k.  About 10 bids.
The old Gas station had no bids.


I guess "Newbie" Les did not scare enough people away.

David, 
Not sure where you came across the info on the septic problems on this property,( I would love to know where you found that because I could not find it).  The Septic guy at the Town only works 4 hours a week and not overly helpful or quick, but what I did find looked like a newer updated septic could be installed along with a structure covering about 2000 sq ft of lot.  The bigger issue for anyone considering bidding this one, be aware there is a 50k lien on the property from the Family Responsibility Office.  ( yes that is a crown lien)  I was considering a bid but not with the FRO lien.  That explains why they never bothered to sell before it went into arrears, because the money from the sale would of gone to the kids  ( image that, letting it go instead of selling it and paying your obligations to your own kids).     

Hope some of you found this helpful,  paying it forward.

Hello Gentelmen,  I have been watching this board for about a year now and finally registered.  Thought  some of you maybe interested to know that Milton 9.9 acres lot went for $25,004.00 

Also anyone have any info on the St Clair conservation authority flood plain policy that states no building may be erected on a flood fringe property below an elevation of 181.66m   My second tax sale purchase was of a vacant lot in Dresden last fall and it seems I did not do all my homework because the lot is about 1 meter below this elevation.( I hired a surveyor to do elevation readings)   Seems since the property is surounded by other lots with homes on them there should be away around this,  Any idea's or experiences dealing with these conservation folks
