Official Sources

Where Our Data Comes From

Listings are sourced primarily from official government notices — a municipal treasurer's tax-sale page, a provincial gazette, or the sale documents those bodies publish. A listing is not marked as officially sourced until it has been matched against that notice. We do not treat resale or aggregator sites as a source of record.

Municipal notices

Town, city, county, and rural municipality tax-sale and tax-title pages, plus the tender packages and sale-of-land notices they publish.

Provincial gazettes & registries

Provincial gazettes and government registries that publish tax enforcement and sale-of-land lists.

No aggregators

We exclude resale and aggregator sites as a source of record. If one helps us locate an official notice, we still ingest from the government original.

Coverage by province

We currently hold records across 11 provinces and territories, drawn from 556 municipalities.

Counts are read live from our database. A province with few or zero active listings simply has no open sales right now — it does not mean the jurisdiction is unmonitored.
