Hopefully the listing agent will be there and you can make an offer on the house.

Wont be worth it then. The place needs a lot of work and was hoping to get it before realtors fees. I was going to make an as is cash offer on it at the time.

What kind of value you suppose the house is?

Not as much as the listing agent thinks it is....

Sellers determine the listing price.

Hmmm, turns out little ole zEEk was jealous of the hoarder and really was after anything decent the dead guy owned….

Well...the entire sea wall needs to be replaced and no telling what the inside looks like/needs. My offer would have been $150K or less.

What are the comps like? Is 150K a realistic number in that market?

400-450k...I was hoping that because she lives out of state and I was going to just hand her the cash that she would sell. I was going to take it as is and fix and remove all the shit in and around the house. That way she could just walk away from it and have a pocket full of cash....Hell for all I know she may have decided to just keep it as a winter home.... I havent talked to her since making the offer except for one text from her about the funeral service.

Sounds like you were going to try and steal the property. She probably laughed at your lowball offer.

More proof of the kinda person he is…..

If she read his words here about her father, she’d probably sell to the Hindu!

But does the house have Spanish Lace ceilings?

As a reminder…..


“My next door neighbor is about 70, a for real hoarder, has diabetes, COPD (still smokes), on set parkinson's disease, is way overweight, but otherwise a very nice guy. My dilemma is that he has an old dilapidated, eyesore of an old boat lift that I am tired of looking at. I first made him an offer to pay to have it removed, which he rejected claiming he may get another boat one day. He can barely walk and is broke, let alone fix the lift or buy a boat. I then offered to not only pay to have it removed, but I would also give him $500 cash. He also turned that offer down. He later said he would consider $1500 cash....Fuk that.....

I called the city code enforcement and found that he is in violation of at least 3 city codes and would have to fix the lift or possibly remove it completely. I don't want to be a prick and turn him in but was thinking of using that info as a bargaining chip. I would give him one more chance to let me remove it, or he can face the city fines and costs on his own. I hate to do that being friendly neighbors and all....but Im tired of looking at this eyesore...

At the rate his health is deteriorating, I doubt he will be around much longer....then I will report it to code....let whoever inherits it take care of the problem......and no, it will not bother me even the slightest if he puked out his heart right now...”



Guess you got your wish.

I was trying to steal it....but she didnt laugh at my offer because we never got to the point where I made an offer.

Hey, if I didnt do it some one else will. On a good note, she has really cleaned the dump up! Took down the hurricane shutters and removed the sand bags that have been there for years. Got all the horded shit off the back porch...Im really impressed! Either way, it's a win win for me. Now if only my neighbor across the street would meet the same demise.....

Bet this gets a large rise out of my stalker....

Yes if she decides to sell I’m sure someone will buy it. But it appears that she is wise enough to either understand the real estate market or is smart enough to employ a good broker who does.

Somebody has to give you a reason to stay alive but you’ll likely take a dirt nap before any others on the block….


All about you, baby

Im actually relieved that she is fixing the place up and selling herself. I really didnt want that big of a project, but couldnt NOT give it a try...
