A tax sale process is initiated by the registration of a Tax Arrears Certificate in the land registry office. The municipality may register this certificate if taxes remain unpaid on vacant or improved land for three years prior to January 1st of any year. These time lines apply to both residential and non-residential classes of property. This process is in accordance with Part XI of the Municipal Act, S.O. 2001.
A Tax Arrears Certificate states that the property may be sold if taxes, penalties, interest, and reasonable costs incurred by the municipality are not paid within one year of registration of the certificate. Once a certificate has been registered, partial payments cannot be accepted.
In the event that the amount indicated ("cancellation price") is not paid before the expiry of the one-year redemption period, these properties can be disposed of either by public auction or by public tender. Advertisements are published in The Weekly Bulletin of the Orillia Today newspaper for four consecutive weeks. The sales are always subject to certain rules and follow procedures that have been established by legislation. At these sales, the minimum acceptable offer on a property is always the cancellation price, plus accumulated taxes, penalties and interest, HST where applicable, and the relevant land transfer tax.
