3017. The registrar is bound to notify, as soon as possible, each person having required registration of his address, that the property in which he holds a published right is the subject of a notice of intention to exercise a hypothecary right or a prior notice of sale for non-payment of immovable taxes. He does the same where a notice requires the abandonment of a taking in payment or where the property is to be sold by judicial authority or, in the case of an immovable, has been adjudicated for non-payment of immovable taxes, or is under seizure; the registrar indicates the place and date of any sale.
Similar notification shall be sent to the Attorney General in the case of any property charged with a hypothec or in the case of a published prior claim in favour of the State. It must also be sent to La Financière agricole du Québec and the Société d’habitation du Québec in the case of an immovable charged with hypothecs published in their favour.
A person having required the registration of an electronic address is deemed to have been notified upon simple proof that the information the registrar is required to notify has been transmitted to that address.
