Should have read the title first.

Property Flopper said...

Palm trees? Seriously? That close to the house? Has this person ever seen a full sized palm and all the crap they drop?

I won't even get into the cost, just commenting on the "ick" factor of the curb appeal.

Jean ValJean said...

I'm particularly drawn in by the pre-leaning mailbox.

This could be the "next big trend", like pre-torn jeans.

Lookin' like a fool
With your mailbox on the ground.

WTF??

Is that last sale the bank taking it back or is this a flipper trying to clear about $6.95 after commissions and carrying costs?

That's maybe a $100k house in Katyland. Whoever paid $585k was sniffing glue. Whoever loaned them the money was taking amphetamines.

w said...

Could you rent this house for $2,000/month in Katyland?

segfault said...

LOL @ Northern Renter.

Is this REO property?

segfault said...

Also, the door-less glass shower looks goofy in a bathroom that small, and probably doesn't keep water off the floor that well.

There used to be a TV show on HBO called "Sherman Oaks" and I would like to live there due to the scenery.

I hope you used plenty of re-bar in that new mailbox stand. It could double as part of a tank barrier system if you installed a few more.

Pleather Murse said...

Saw a book today at a local bookstore entitled "Buying a Home in Morocco." It looked really tempting. Alas ...

Funny Circus Bears said...

Lou should post another "Californians Are Crazy - Honey Stop The Car!" thread.

AAMOF you are exactly correct. It also has 110v for visitors with RVs and/or my electric gattling gun.

Now that somebody has complimented me on my project we can move on.

Property Flopper said...

110? For your top of the line gatlings, you'll want 220.

Property Flopper said...

Arg... two t's in gatTling.

wagga said...

Unless it's a handgun, in which case it's a gat.

wagga said...

PF:

You got Gatling right the first time. Muphry is not your friend.

Property Flopper said...

Aw hell, I'm just going to give up...

Sort of like the DOW today... sub 10k. No new post on it - I'm surprised.

H Simpson said...

How much cashback can I get on this opportunity of a lifetime??

You need a 2nd mailbox to the right of the 1st one. First fill the sucker full of concrete and then through bolt it to your masonary work.

when those high schoolers come through swinging the baseball bat from their Jetta's passenger window, they will get a surprise sure to stop their antics at your address.

The neighbors will appreciate your forethought, and the postman will figure out the one on the left is the real mailbox.

H Simpson said...

speaking of dreamers, did you notice the tax assessment for the land was $302K?

300K for a quarter acre lot?
That is $30 a square foot for dirt.

You have a serious drug problem when it seems everyone is still drinking the kool-aid even after 20 months of a reality check.

So what happened to the "post-a-day"?

It's so bad, I'd almost think you were buying an island....
