If you could be assured that you'd at least get a warning landslide before potentially losing the house, you could move in and live, enjoy the house and view, knowing that it's temporary, maybe just for a few years, and would have warning when it's time to pack up and go.

If the house could plummet into the river at any moment, then the house is unlivable, as any occupants wouldn't have any warning to get out.

I'd be interested in that as a 2nd/vacation property if there was some guarantee that you'd have warning prior to the house actually falling away.


@Loco Vette might have something to say about this.
