look at tract 63 on Fiero Ave. It is 4.5 feet wide by 115 feet. The taxes are $600!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They should be $20.00!!!!!!!!!!
No one will buy it except the land owner adjacent and WHY THE HELL WOULD THEY FOR TAXES LIKE THAT?!?!?!?!?!
That goes to show you how stupid and crooked things are in this town!!!!! |

Imagine living in your home for years with people you love, knowing down the road the house will be sold either too big without kids anymore, or to move down south like you said only to find your home is worth nothing anymore : ( It's happening to many. It's a DAM shame. |

SCHENECTADY Company moving to seize homes ATF looks to collect on liens held through deal BY KATHLEEN MOORE Gazette Reporter
So much for gentle handling. The city once sold its tax liens to American Tax Funding on the promise it would work with property owners rather than simply seizing their houses for small amounts of unpaid taxes. But now, the gloves are off. ATF filed 13 foreclosure actions since Sept. 1 after the city began its own foreclosures on properties that owe years of back taxes. ATF is going after even those residents who have been faithfully making payments through a plan with ATF. ATF has the authority to foreclose on any liens it purchased from the city unless the property owner pays up. In one case, the owner owes $168 to ATF. Hemlall Mangru, who owns 919 Francis Ave., has been making payments on a 2009 tax bill that he did not pay on time. He originally owed $1,675, but while making payments to ATF, he stopped paying his city taxes. ......................................>>>>..........................................>>>>.................................http://www.dailygazette.net/De.....r00100&AppName=1

Anyone go. Any action. What did these properties sell for? |

ROFLMAO NO ONE! NO ONE WANTS TO BUY IN THE CITY !!!!!!!!! NOT EVEN DIRT CHEAP!!!!!!!!!!! NOT EVEN DV WILL BUY A HOUSE !!!!!!!!!!! But on 10/7/10 a board member wrote:
WAAAAAA !!!!! WAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!! b**ch and moan .. and rehash the same lies ... that is all you are good for. You are just jealous that Stratton and Savage have brought progress ... positive improvements.
Something that your GOP friends did NOT bring in the years they ran the county and the city.
TWO YEARS AFTER THIS POST:What positive improvements? DRASTICALLY reduced tax base is a positive improvement? DRASTICALLY reduced home values are positive improvements? DRASTICALLY INCREASED taxes, almost the highest taxes in the whole country is a positive improvement? DRASTIC LOSS in essential, vital services to the residents, to the homeowners, to the taxpayers in the county is a positive improvement? Highest unemployment is a positive improvement? Highest teen pregnancy rate is a positive improvement? Highest poverty rate is a positive improvement? Record high numbers of vacant houses is a positive improvement? Houses that won't sell after a year on the market with massive reductions in asking price is a positive improvement? Incredibly high numbers of foreclosed homes is a positive improvement? Massive deficit is a positive improvement? Reduction in the credit rating is a positive improvement? Speechless. No wonder why DV doesn't comment anymore on how wonderful things are, won't address the issues of how the dems have ruined the city |
