If the property was in the City of San Bernardino, there were assessments on a number of properties for nuisance abatement. These amounts were often fairly large, i.e. $10,000 abatement + $10,000 extra in penalties. These did not go away since the City of San Bernardino did not consent to the County of San Bernardino’s sale of the property. See item (b) in the list of exceptions above.

If I buy a piece of Real Estate at San Bernardino County California property tax auction would a $6,000.00 first T.D. loan be wiped out?

The sale of these properties should not, in any way, be equated to real
estate sales by licensed salesmen, brokers or realtors. The County Tax
Collector cannot guarantee the condition of the property nor assume any
responsibility for conformance to codes, permits or zoning ordinances. You
should inspect the property before investing. The burden is on the
purchaser to thoroughly research, before the tax sale, any matters
relevant to his or her decision to purchase, rather than on the county,
whose sole interest is the recovery of back taxes. It is recommended that
bidders consult with the Zoning Department of any city within which a
particular parcel lies, or the Zoning Section of the County Planning
Department for an unincorporated area parcel. Tax defaulted property will
be sold on an as is basis.
Should the successful purchaser desire a survey of the property, this must
be done at the purchaserÆs expense. No warranty is made by the county,
either expressed or implied, relative to usability, the ground location,
or property lines of the properties. The prospective purchaser must
determine the exact location, desirability, and usefulness of the
properties. Refund of any purchase or any payment on a purchase agreement
will not be made.
The county assumes no liability for any other possible liens, encumbrances
or easements, recorded or not recorded.
The minimum price at which property may be offered for sale shall be an
amount not less than the total amount necessary to redeem and the costs of
the sale.
Where property has been offered for sale at least once and no acceptable
bids have been received, the Tax Collector may offer that property at the
next scheduled sale at a minimum price that he deems appropriate.
The parcels will be sold to the highest bidder. The successful bidder
will be notified by Bid4Assets.
Settlement Requirements:
High Bidder must pay in full within five (5) business days from each
auction close.
Acceptable forms of payment will be:
Certified / Cashier’s Check / Bank Money Orders (made payable to County
of San Bernardino Treasurer - Tax Collector)
Cash (paid at the San Bernardino County Tax Collector’s office)
Wire Transfer.
Please Note: A documentary transfer tax of $0.55 will be added for each
$500, or fraction thereof, of the final sales price. Instructions on how
to complete the Deed Slip will be sent to high bidders. San Bernardino
County requires that the High Bidder submit the deed slip information to
Bid4Assets.com within 48 hours of the close of auction.
Personal Checks, Traveler’s Checks and credit cards will not be accepted.
TITLE CONVEYED: The Tax Deed conveys title to the purchaser free of
encumbrances of any kind existing before the sale, except:
(a) Any lien for installments of taxes and special assessments (such as
Weed, Water Stand-By, Demolition and Bond), which installments will become
payable upon the secured roll after the time of the sale.
(b) The lien for taxes or assessments or other rights of any taxing agency
which does not consent to the sale of the property. The City of San
Bernardino has objected and is not consenting to this sale.
(c) Liens for special assessments levied upon the property conveyed which
were, at the time of the sale, not included in the amount necessary to
redeem the tax-defaulted property, and, where a taxing agency which
collects its own taxes has consented to the sale, not included in the
amount required to redeem from sale to the taxing agency.
(d) Easements constituting servitudes upon or burdens to the property;
water rights, the record title to which is held separately from the title
to the property; and restrictions of record.
(e) Unaccepted, recorded, irrevocable offers of dedication of the property
to the public or a public entity for a public purpose, and recorded
options of any taxing agency to purchase the property or any interest
therein for a public purpose.
(f) Unpaid assessments under the Improvement Bond Act of 1915 (Division 10
[commencing with Section 8500] of the Streets and Highways Code) which are
not satisfied as a result of the sale proceeds being applied pursuant to
Chapter 1.3 (commencing with Section 4671) of part 8.
(g) Any Federal Internal Revenue Service liens which, pursuant to
provisions of federal law, are not discharged by the sale, even though the
tax collector has provided proper notice to the Internal Revenue Service
before that date.
(h) Unpaid special taxes under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of
1982 (Chapter 2.5 (commencing with Section 53311) of Part 1 of Division 2
of Title 5 of the Government Code) that are not satisfied as a result of
the sale proceeds being applied pursuant to Chapter 1.3 (commencing with
Section 4671) of Part 8.
The right of redemption shall terminate at 5:00 p.m., July 30, 2004. Any
remittance sent by mail for redemption of tax-defaulted property must be
received in the Tax Collector’s office by 5:00 p.m., July 30, 2004. If
the property is sold at auction after redemption has been made, or sold in
error, a refund of only the purchase price and documentary tax will be
made and with the full understanding and agreement of the purchaser that
the Tax Collector has no further liability in the matter.
The following information is furnished to the prospective bidder WITHOUT
WARRANTY and is for the convenience and guidance in locating all parcels.
All items and descriptions listed are believed to be correct. However, the
Tax Collector shall not be held responsible for typographical errors.
As the State law does not provide the Treasurer-Tax Collector with means
of refund in the case of such sale at public auction, USE CAUTION - AND
INVESTIGATE BEFORE YOU BID! Do not attempt to purchase property at the
auction unless an investigation has been made as to the exact location,
desirability and usefulness of the property. Parcels are sold on an “as
is” basis and the County in no way assumes any responsibility implied or
otherwise, that the properties are in compliance with zoning ordinances
and conformance to building codes and permits. An investigation may reveal
that the property is in a street or alley, in a flood control channel or
landlocked, and that improvements that may be shown on the tax sale list
no longer exist at the time of auction and a lien may have been or will be
placed on the property for their removal.
It is the purchaser’s responsibility to determine if there are any liens
or special assessments. It is suggested the Current Tax Roll, County
Treasurer, Cities, Land Use Services and Special Districts be researched
before time to purchase. Contact city or county Planning Department for
zoning and building restrictions.
The Tax Collector shall resolve any dispute arising on any aspect or
transaction of the sale, and his decision shall be final.
