A widow owed $6.30 tax based on her tax assessment, and it is unpaid. The house is worth $280,000. The house was sold at an auction for $116,000.
The widow says she plans to fight the case until her dying day. "Yes, I had issues. I'm a widow. I'm raising three kids on my own, trying to put them through college," she tells the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review. "Yes, it took me a while to get the bills, but I pay my bills. To steal a house for $6 is ludicrous."
Here is the kicker.... She says the man who bought the home at auction has told her she can buy it back—for $260,000.
