By the way, what the heck is that chimney looking thing on the front of that house?

I dunno, but here's some more views, and it sure is a chimney. Weird.

I was a native New Yorker... state that is.... but I wouldn't trade my GTO for any house in NY. I might be a nice place to visit but.... I'm not even sure about that. LOL

His ex lives in it and she's all the time asking him for money for taxes. He tells her pay em yourself or put the house up for sale and get out of NY. He'll take half and she gets half of the sale. Taxes are 6000.00 for an acre and a half. Taxes for his parent's house on the "Island" made me faint. Then you've got Sale Tax for everything else.

Just that first photo with all the paint peeling off should scare most people off.

With a $2,000 annual property tax bill on a $40,000 house, I see what you mean!

Those little '<>' thingies are what messed it up Bob.
He'd be lucky...and I mean REAL lucky to get half his asking price.
And on that house? Might be able to make money one week a year with it. This week, Halloween.
