“I owe how much?”
Real Estate Red Zone – Is Tarion Warranty Corp. Gouging Condo Investors?
Part 4
http://www.thestar.com/article/413122
Is Tarion on a campaign to extract a double set of registration fees and performance bonds (or fines) from investors who buy and sell without moving in?
The logic of the warranty corporation’s position in this matter completely escapes me.
Tarion wants you to pay them $600 when you sell a contract assignment if the unit was not occupied while you had possession of it.
If you don’t pay, someone from Tarion will come knock on your door and can can be either fined $25,000 or be sent to prison for a year. Man that’s harsh and unfair. The new owner gets nothing from Tarion in return for your additional $600, the warranty just keeps running until it expires at seven years.
Sound the Red Zone Alarm! Twice!
