NOTICE is hereby given that the following properties located in the Town of Stellarton are liable to be sold for arrears of taxes and rates due to the Town of Stellarton, as described below, and will be sold under the terms of Part VI of the Municipal Government Act for arrears of rates and taxes, interest and expenses.
The properties will be sold at public auction on March 31, 2026, at 10:00 a.m. at Stellarton Town Hall, Council Chambers, 250 Foord Street, Stellarton, Nova Scotia, B0K 1S0.
TAKE NOTICE that tax sales do not, in all circumstances, clear defects in title. A Tax Deed conveys only the interest of the Assessed Owner, whatever that interest may be. If you intend to clear defects in the title to your property by way of a tax sale, you are advised to obtain a legal opinion as to whether this can be done.
FURTHER, the Town of Stellarton makes no representations with respect to the location of the boundaries or the size of the property being purchased. You are advised to obtain an opinion from a duly qualified Nova Scotia Land Surveyor with respect to such matters. You are also advised that the recoverable costs of a tax sale can be considerable. Except for redemption provisions, all sales are final.
THE SUCCESSFUL BIDDER WILL BE REQUIRED TO PAY THE TAXES, INTEREST AND EXPENSES DUE ON THE DAY OF THE SALE BY CERTIFIED CHEQUE, CASH, MONEY ORDER OR LAWYER'S TRUST CHEQUE. THE REMAINING BALANCE, IF ANY, MUST BE PAID WITHIN THREE (3) BUSINESS DAYS AFTER THE SALE.
PLEASE NOTE THAT HST WILL BE CALCULATED AND COLLECTED WHEN APPLICABLE AND THAT TOTALS SHOWN ARE SUBJECT TO CHANGE.
IF TAXES OUTSTANDING ARE MORE THAN SIX YEARS IN ARREARS AT THE TIME OF THE SALE, THE ORIGINAL OWNER DOES NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO REDEEM THE PROPERTY. PROPERTIES SIX YEARS OR LESS IN ARREARS HAVE A RIGHT OF REDEMPTION FOR UP TO SIX MONTHS AFTER THE TAX SALE.
The Town of Stellarton makes no representations or warranties to any purchaser regarding the fitness, geographical or environmental suitability of the land offered for sale for any particular use and does not certify the legal title, legal description or boundaries. The lands offered for sale are being sold on an "AS IS" BASIS ONLY.
