That looks like Herman Munster's house. I have seen houses that didn't
look much better with a new looking central air unit sitting beside
them, and I'm sure everyone has seen them also with a nice shiny car/SUV
in the driveway. Larry

I think it may be more symbolic of Obamacare. They got the storm door
after a one year wait and now need to wait another year to get a new
roof. Oh wait, that is an old house so maybe under Obamacare it will
only be eligible for a quick spray coat of thinned out big box quality
paint...

I think you can get $4500 trade-in credit on a new house...

Or is that some other program? I forget.

I'm surprised nobody has gone to the trouble of stapling garbage bags over
the holes in the roof. The thing would probably collapse if somebody
tried.

What you didn't see is the lack of "yard ornaments". Where are all the
boats, cars, cement blocks, etc?

I would buy that house for a couple thousand dollars.

There was a very similar property in a nearby town. The owner had
apparently inherited the place and didn't have or didn't want to spend
the money to repair it but couldn't part with it for some reason. The
neighbors kept on him to do something so he kept the grass neatly cut
and free of the usual "lawn ornaments" for many many years. One day the
roof simply fell in. The remains were removed a few days later.

Sad story. He should have sold the timber.

That ugly house has some real good lumber inside. For 2K I would still
buy it.

Now this one I can honestly say I've experienced...

http://thereifixedit.com/wp-content/...06/tifi-ac.jpg

Go back to the storm door picture and look at the area above the third
floor windows. My friend was painting an old house in the city and we
couldn't get a ladder to reach that area.

He stood on the outside of the window sill, with a roller on an
extension pole while I held him around the waist, my face basically
buried in his crotch. We had pictures of it from down below, but it
was before the days of digital (and brains!) and I have no idea where
they are.

Unfortunately that happens to naive homeowners. They're sold an air
conditioning system for low monthly payments. Then when they miss a
payment they face foreclosure.
