Contraventions of the Act are punishable by a fine, and offending purchasers may be ordered to sell the residential property.

Prospective bidders/tenderers are solely responsible for ensuring compliance with the Act and are advised to seek legal advice before participating in this sale.

Please Note:

Tax Sales are not typical real estate transactions. If you are considering participating in a tax sale, it is highly recommended that you seek independent legal advice from a lawyer licensed to practice in Ontario and in good standing with the Law Society of Upper Canada.

In addition, it is not permitted to enter upon a property that is advertised for tax sale. These are not typical real estate transactions. Entering upon a property advertised for tax sale proceedings is considered to be trespassing.

Before you submit a tender for a tax sale property, be aware of the following:

  1. This process is buyer beware. You must undertake due diligence with respect to all aspects of the property.
  2. You may drive past the property, but site visits are not available.
  3. There is no vacant possession. The successful bidder will not receive a key to the property. The successful bidder is responsible for the eviction process if necessary.
  4. You are responsible for any Federal or Provincial liens on title. We recommend you do a title search before submitting your bid.
  5. You should investigate zoning, planning or building restrictions, and work orders.
  6. You are responsible for any environmental concerns if there are contamination issues with the property.
  7. The onus is on you to conduct your own inquiries for water/hydro and other arrears.
