Board approves realtor services RFP to market tax-acquired properties
Summary
The Select Board approved a request-for-proposal (RFP) for realtor services to list and market certain tax-acquired properties, aiming to return properties to taxable status when owners do not make payments.
The Select Board approved a request for proposals (RFP) seeking realtor services to list tax-acquired properties and assist the town in returning properties to taxable status.
The town manager explained the RFP borrows language from a neighboring town and lays out scope of services, minimum qualifications, and the process for invitation and rejection of bids. The RFP is intended to provide the town with broker(s) to list properties that receive no good-faith payments from prior owners; the manager said some of the properties are subject to ongoing payment efforts while others have had no payments for more than two years.
Board members approved a motion to publish the RFP, with a minor correction to the document numbering requested by the manager before release. The manager will post the RFP and accept proposals from real estate brokers; the board said it expects to use the results to place properties with brokers when warranted.
