PROPERTY NOTE: RE: Tax Incremental Finance info.
Previously, there was a TIF (Tax Incremental Finance) District set up for a planned Multi-family housing project. The TIF is at $600,000. The TIF dollars can be divided between the 3 parcels if purchased by separate buyers based on % of total purchase price if separate buyers. The TIF District is still set up with Becker County. Previously Planned project was for a Proposed Senior Living Center and much preliminary work was completed on this plan including Prospective Appraisal and Housing Assessment for the Lake Park, MN area. Owners have advised that these reports will be available for review by the registered bidders at Auction. Pifers does not represent the continued availability of the TIF District and future buyer may need to visit with City of Lake Park as well as Becker County. All discussions with county and City of Lake Park indicate that continuance of TIF District will not be an issue with new owner.
