Yep, there's a house a couple doors down from my house that they can't sell for less than the value of the land it's sitting on for similar reasons -- renovation costs plus liens for back taxes, various city fines &etc.
It's currently back on the market at $4,900 but I know that the city sending someone out to mow the grass is a $200 or $300 bill (can't remember the exact amount) so I imagine there's multiple $10k on top of the purchase price to even get a title.
Hell, I'd buy it just for the garage but...
- ckdarby 3y agoYou imagine or you confirmed? You'd buy it just for the garage but don't want to put in the time to sort out logistics of a purchase?
- UncleEntity 3y agoThe listing specifically states that there are issues (liens and whatnot) that a potential buyer needs to contact the city about and I know, because I'm lazy, lawn mowing tickets cost a couple hundred bucks but not the exact dollar amount and the city is pretty diligent at enforcing that particular ordinance. So, yeah, I imagine it's more trouble than it's worth.
