he ended up in a nursing home about a month back, today they are having the first open house. Got to wondering if I outta go sit on the front porch in my underwear and drink beer from 1-3, then got to thinking maybe the folks who buy it might do the same thing, and looking in the mirror is bad enough, hate to think about a differnt face and maybe another 50lbs looking back at me in their underwear...............

Just go in the back yard if your allowed and do some target practice during the open house
If you scare them off no loss if they stop over to see if your a 9mm or 45 fan your good to go
You could park your RV out in the street in front of your house and just leave the sewage hoses hooked up with the ends over the storm drain. This will even get more attention if your RV is old and dilapidated. 😁
You're cruel,lol 😄😄
The house across the street from us has been on the market since July.... It just sold after the price dropped 100,000... Anyway we would dread showings because it's a fixer upper and has a mother in law unit... We saw all kinds and sometimes it was like you wanted to yell Noo! Thank goodness it sold to our neighbors behind us so no more rental. Thank you Lord.

The land directly across the road from me is 710 acres, woods and farmland, 3rd generation owners. I pray for their continued health and well being every night. If they get run over by a beer truck, there will be little orange survey streamers on the trees before a week is out.
Does the house for sale include the couch and refrigerator on the front porch?
That front porch is the kitchen. It never got the outside walls put up.
Open concept.
Perfect world…buy it without the realtor commission…control its destiny.
Rental? Sell to the perfect neighbors? Grow weed?
Jim, it's in Cal. not W.Va.
Wow, I'm sorry I missed that one!
If you've ever considered being a landlord, this would be the ideal time. Close enough to be able to see what the tenants get up to, no need to haul tools and stuff around to do maintenance, and pretty much a "pays for itself" investment.
Right Rocky Raab, being a landlord is easy money. I have 3 rentals and wish I could remember who told me that 15 years ago so I could punch him!
Went through a couple of new neighbors a few years ago. The worst part was the first new neighbors were there for only a year and were excellent neighbors. The previous neighbors had been there before we built 35 years ago.
The second new neighbor has been okay, just made a lot of changes to the property to make it look like a city property when we live in the country.
Our only neighbors are in their 80's. Their live in son has mental problems. I dread the day.
only had two show up for open house, they are asking about $100,000 more than it is worth, I think the son is trying to make some fast cash as he has allready emptied the house of all furnishings and auctioned them off. It is right out of the 80's and most everything needs remodeled adding quite another big chunk of money. after Earl's wife died he never did anything else to the house till last year he had a roof put on, the rest was just like the day she died. I sold one house years ago on land contract, NEVER again will I deal as a landlord for anything. I just hate to see it sit empty for 6-8months or longer till they drop the price to where it will sell. He was a 20 year navy man, retired from the phone company as foreman, and his social security so he has/had a decent retirement, I am sure the nursing home is taking all that now. He was the type of neighbor who would talk if out in the yard or on the front porch, I have taken a few beers over and debated the fate of the world with him a few times but he never was nosy or spied around, just a real good neighbor to have.
My neighbor does pretty well renting out a duplex a couple blocks away. That's all I based my earlier post on. Horses for courses as they say; the job of landlord perhaps isn't for everybody.
Wouldn't you want to do things that would attract NICE neighbors?
And fiery auto crashes
Some will die in hot pursuit
While sifting through my ashes
Some will fall in love with life
And drink it from a fountain
That is pouring like an avalanche
Coming down the mountain
@hillbille I certainly hope you get good neighbors.... I know how it is to have bad both in town and the country. The house I posted has been a rental for 30 years... Some good mostly bad. On the ranch we have to use Ken's term a wackadoodle

i hope you get a good neighbour. Mine was a great gun never home. took retirement an died 3 months latter. His nephew took the house an has redone everything. Buy after he has heard so many test firing of guns an took one look at me we have no issues. Not even a problem when his goat gets out for a visit.
Seems a lot of people get crazier all the time. It would be hard for me to live were the houses are built really close to each other.
