I live in a nice well kept neighborhood. 2 door down from me is a 3 bedroom, 2 1/2 bath house that stands empty. The last occupants abandoned the place when they bailed on the mortgage payments. This was a family that had champaigne tastes on a beer budget, and some shiester gave them a loan when they never had the means to meet the obligation! Now its empty with a busted swing set in the back yard. Torn screens and junk flyers piling up on the mailbox. The city had to come and cut down the overgrown grass and drain the stagnant water out of the pool after I bitched to the alderman. The longer it sits like that, the lower the value of the surrounding properties go....including mine!
Sad,but true...
ReplyDeleteOh yeah that's a fact........
ReplyDeleteOf the four houses, three were speculators and the fourth shouldn't have been given a loan in the first place.

ReplyDeleteSo your yearly assessment - and the taxes you pay on 100% of that amount - will go up a little less than they did this year and the year before.
