County To Sell Surplus Molino Property
March 4, 2009
Escambia County is trying to sell a piece of surplus property in the Molino area.
The county wants to sell a piece of property in the 6100 block of Schaag Road to the highest bidder than exceeds $3,648.
Escambia County acquired the property by tax deed in November 1982. The Escambia County Commission authorized its sale on April 4, 2007, with a minimum bid of $32,700. Eight bid solicitations were issued with no response.
In November 2008, the property appraiser reassessed the value of the land at $3,648.
The property includes a below standard house that is about 1,000 square feet.

I agree with Curtis C.
The house is not only sub standard, it is ready to fall down. Im sure after it sells, the county will swoop in and slap a comdemned sticker across the door to welcome the new owners to the county.
Below standard in this case means uninhabitable, I’ve seen this house and the others on that little strip of road, $3648 may seem like a deal to some folks though.
Looks like it would cost more to demolish the house than what the property’s worth. Right now doesn’t seem like a good time for the County to be in the real estate business. The decline in value from $32,700 to $3648 in less than 2 years is about 88%. I’m sure this won’t help the adjacent property values. Also curious what “below standard” really means.
