Vanderburgh County this week listed more than 600 properties where it will attempt to sell the tax liability to recover more than $4.5 million in unpaid taxes. The properties meet the minimum requirement of missing tax payments for 18 months.
The sale will occur on September 17 at the Old National Events Plaza.
Some highlights from the list:
The property with the most taxes owed is two parcels at 3200 North Sixth Avenue, with a minimum bid of $816,548 and $619,920. Another connected parcel on Allens Lane has $560,000 in unpaid taxes. This location is the former Miller Plating. It is owned by MPMF Realty LLC, which dissolved in 2011. The government spent millions of dollars cleaning the contamination left by the business.
The Miller Plating building was demolished years ago.
The highest unpaid tax bill for a multi-family home is $21,186 for a 10-bedroom and bathroom property at 521 SE First St. It is owned by a company that told the Treasurer’s Office to send the tax bill to an address in Idaho, but registered the business in Indianapolis with a California address.
The company with the most delinquent properties isn’t even a valid corporation anymore. Masrani Global LLC of Salem, Indiana dissolved in 2023. This company has 24 properties with a combined $66,000 tax liability. All properties are in residential neighborhoods, and the county once auctioned many due to unpaid taxes.
Masrani Global LLC owns 803 Jefferson Avenue.
