What is the name of your state? Indiana.
I just received a letter from Good Samaritan Hospital of Vincennes, Indiana, inquiring if I would be interested in selling my home to them. According to this letter they are updating their 'Master Facility Plan', yet claims there are no specific plans for expansion that would involve my home at this time. Everyone on our block has received the same letter.
I did call and left a message yesterday saying that we are not interested in selling our property.
My questions...
1. Can a community hospital utilize eminent domain to seize our home? If so, is it futile to even try to fight it?
2. Is it time for me to retain an attorney at this early of a stage? The letter is the first correspondence that I have received from them.
We love our home, and are in the process of renovating it. It sits in the historical district of the city, and was given a notable contribution rating by the historal society.
