Would you like to know my latest dilemma with selling the house? It's one I never imagined! We keep getting weird, cryptic feedback from potential buyers. About the time one got serious (got a fencing estimate, asked questions about the HOA bylaws they requested and received), they dropped off the face of the earth. The agent and I have been truly perplexed by this latest development.
Monday my dad and I dropped by so I could water the flowers and check over the property on my way to taking him to the airport. We pulled on the street and both of us frowned. My dad commented, "the dingy white lace curtains are a real nice touch". There were some tree guys working on the main thoroughfare, so we both thought it belonged to one of them. Alas. It did not. I pulled up to the house again today only to find a fricking ugly, beat up 70s era hearse parked in front of the house.
And according to the neighbors, it is creeping the potential buyers out. There's nothing illegal about parking a hearse on the street, but jeez. Really? It's decrepit and belongs in a haunted house parking lot. Apparently, it belongs to the next door neighbor's SIL, who is house sitting for his FIL while he's in the hospital. Oh, for an extended stay. Fortunately for me, SIL creeper lives across that main thoroughfare. I guess the neighbors have talked to him, and I guess he doesn't give a sh!t. So I placed a formal complaint with the HOA. Apparently, I'm not the first.
I need some teenage boys who are willing to be vandals for an night? Who knows any? I'd like to slash his tires and put a real dead body in the back. Takers????
This one trumps the need for an electrician, which will be fixed tomorrow. It's always something...
