Much time (5 years or so) has passed since the eBay Land Sales of Nova Scotia real estate that many have come to believe were nothing more than old fashioned Land Scams. It appears as if some of those players are "still going strong".
One, Carmen Blinn of Antigonish Nova Scotia, boasts of her real estate specialty of developing beautiful vacation acreage, and having developed approximately 40 subdivisions to date. And seems to be in the land selling business in Nova Scotia using some very familiar terminology.
(BEWARE: Is this the same Carmen Blinn that is discussed in those old posts and news articles? Where is Kevin Blinn or Kevin Layes ? Is this the same land that was described as so promising in the old eBay listings? Is Nova Scotia Land Sales now Nova Scotia Canada Property Sales? If it looks like a duck and walks like a duck it probably is a duck.)
The following comments from the Nova Scotia Canada Properties Sales website appear to be the complete opposite from the claims of previous buyers of land from Carmin Blinn through Nova Scotia Land Sales. Namely, there were no guarantees, no access and the properties were not suitable for the claims made in the sales pitches. In fact the properties sold became land investors nightmares!
"My team of Contractors, Nova Scotia Land Surveyors and Lawyers work on every property to guarantee the land I sell to be accessible, beautiful, free and clear of encumbrances, and suitable for the buyer's purpose!"
"I am dedicated to bringing each and every one of my customers added value. The property I sell is a land investor's dream."
But you can read about Carmen Blinn for yourself at her website.

To Continue this venue seems important
My intention was to let others continue this venue and discuss what is happening with real estate and Internet sales.
It has become clear to me that when "new" buyers purchase land and then feel as if they have been mislead, many resort to doing searches on the Internet to put the missing pieces together.
And herein lies(no pun) the value of a venue like this and the sole reason for keeping it going and updated.
Recently I have been made aware of another buyer of property from Kevin and Carmen Blinn of Nova Scotia who feel that they have purchased land vastly different from the description in the sales literature. (Night and Day is not to far fetched!)
Certainly there are others out there who have not come to realize the situation in which they are involved- and they have land in Nova Scotia, the U.S and likely elsewhere- and have been the victim of land fraud too.
So I hope this blog is useful to others when they start their searches to right injustices.
Post your view, Complain, Disclose the identity of the fraudsters, Explain what you are doing and what you are up against. I know it's helping others.

Comment on NovaScotiaBusinessJournal.com
Clearly something is amiss in Port Clyde, Municipality of Barrington, Nova Scotia. The comments posted here overwhelmingly question, if not outright refute, the claims C. Blinn has made in describing the properties she has sold in Barrington. Her comments about J. Harlow have also met with opposition.
The Building Inspector for the Municipality of Barrington says "they are selling lots that don't exist on street names that don't exist". The folks who have commented have pointed out the apparent misrepresentations between C. Blinns descriptions of everything from the names of towns, their sizes, their distances from other places, the condition of the land sold etc. etc. and their particular knowledge of the area. C. Blinn states "I did not know that Harlow and Gillespie were the people in charge of Shelburne County!".
This comment begs the question of when the elected officials of the Municipality of Barrington will weigh in on this matter. Upon viewing the Municipality of Barrington website it is clear to me that the general populace and the local officials both care for and cherish their home towns and the quality of life it affords them.
Both, I assume, also care deeply about the image the Municipality of Barrington depicts to the world. The growing and far reaching situation of eBay land sales in your municipality by Nova Scotia Land Sales, and possibly other internet companies, needs to be thoroughly researched, immediately, by Council and Committee Members as they have been absent from this situation thus far.
For clearly something is amiss in Port Clyde, Municipality of Barrington, Nova Scotia.
