Go to the county office, the county secretary or clerk should be able to help you. They usually have a lot of properties left over after the tax auctions. I'm about to start purchasing some of these homes myself from different counties. I hope this helps you

Call the accessors office where property tax is paid (it's Mary Gouge, the clerk) \n\nI am on the mailing list but don't remember how I got on there.  (it is from a law office- they may just handle them for the county)  Seems like they do the sales a couple of times a year.

Hi Mitzi-\nI'm very familiar with PA law.  The theft is going to be based upon the amount involved.  I can almost guarantee that there will have to be restitution.  Sentencing depends on the person's past criminal history (if any), the facts of the case...if it was particularly heinous and the victims involved, etc. and the amount of cash or items taken.

EMINENT DOMAIN - The government's right to acquire private property for public use. \n\n1)The Castle Coalition is the Institute for Justice’s nationwide grassroots property rights activism project.  We help home and small business owners protect themselves and stand up to the greedy governments and developers who seek to take private property for their own gain. And thanks to the gracious generosity of our donors, we're able to do this for free.\n2)The controversial Lafayette Landings subdivision in Floyds Knobs has been approved by the Floyd County (Ind.) Plan Commission. \n3)One of the distinguishing features of a free society is its defense of the right of private property. As every individual has the right to his life, so has he the right to those things necessary to sustain life - among them, the private ownership of property and the ability to keep the fruits of his labor.\n4)Eminent Domain: the power of a government to take private property for public use; the 5th Amendment of the US Constitution and articles in many state constitutions allow this practice provided that just compensation is made.\nThe World's Largest Online Library 43 articles listed.

I think it bites if the government can take your privately owned property so that some privately owned commercial business can have it.  If it's for roads etc., it might be necessary.

I answered your post about living outside the city.  If you want to live in the city and are renting you might try far Northeast Philly (Somerton 19116) which doesn't feel like the city.  Roxborough/Manayunk is also a popular place to rent (19128, 19127) although slightly more expensive to rent.  I wouldn't recommend buying in Philadelphia though.

I WOULD TRY AND INVEST IT. POSSIBLY TRY AND GET REALESTATE PROPERTY. I WOULD WANT TO SEE WHAT REALESTATE  THE GOV. HAD FOR SALE. FORCLOSURES GOOD DEALS ON THAT KIND OF LAND

I think you may have confused the Tax Collecor with the Property Appraiser Rob Turner.  \n\nYou can find who owns the property by entering the address at the Property Appraiser Web Site I've included below.

Places like Moorestown, Cherry Hill, Mt Laurel are nice put are getting very expensive.  Also the property taxes are getting ridiculously high.  I would suggest going a little further south like something in Glassboro.  They are building new houses down there too. Maybe you can get some pre-construction deals if your not in a hurry.\n\nGood Luck!

Yes most definitely and that applies even today. It falls under eminent domain. The Govt. can even take your house
