I want to know more.


I'm a nosy person, obviously. So I'm curious about this house. Were people living here when it looked like this? Or has it all happened since they moved out?

Ready for that BATF stand-off


Is that a mattress in front of the window? And a chair in front of the door? In a cabin with no plumbing or power? Why yes, I believe it is.

Make every photo count.

This listing had only two photos, and this is one of them:


I wonder what the photos that didn't make the cut looked like.

Screw it. Let's just sell the place.


"You clean it up."
"No, you."
"You!"
"You!"
"You!"
"You!"
"You!"

$200,000 and all this could be yours!


I exaggerate. It's not really $200,000.

It's $199,500.

I find this photo soothing.


I don't know why. Maybe it's the calm colors. Or maybe it's because the listing tells me not to be scared.

Nobody likes pools.

Our house had a pool like this one when we moved in, too:


It cost about $3,000 to get it removed. Which is probably why these people are just keeping their pool, even though it's so full of algae it's almost a wetlands:



Although, come to think of it, it looks like that one's above ground. Hmmm. All I know is that I have absolutely no urge to go down that slide.
