The Municipality of the District of Lunenburg makes no representations or warranties to any purchaser regarding any property sold at tax sale, including but not limited to the environmental condition of any property, the fitness, geographical or environmental suitability of the land(s) offered for sale for any particular use and does not certify the “legal title”, “legal description”, “access” or “boundaries” and the lands offered for sale are BEING SOLD ON AN “AS IS” BASIS ONLY.
TAKE NOTICE that Tax Sales do not in all circumstances clear up defects in title. A tax deed conveys only the interest of the assessed owner, whatever that interest may be. If you are intending to clear up defects in the title of any subject property by way of a Tax Sale, you are advised to obtain a legal opinion as to whether or not this can be done.
PROPERTY TAXES: The purchaser will be responsible for all property taxes beginning the day of the sale. The Treasurer has not made any determination as to whether a survey is or is not required.

Land sold for non-payment of taxes may be redeemed by the owner, a person with a mortgage, lien or other charge on the land or a person having an interest in the land within six months after the date of the sale.
