Marc Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 It's painful to look at those floors, fireplace and woodwork and not be able to do anything about it. What's the story? Marc
gtblum Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 What a waste! Every bit of that woodwork could be used elsewhere.
Les Posted April 16, 2014 Author Report Posted April 16, 2014 Well the story is typical Michigan repo market. Today there will be 20 or so of these houses demo'd in Detroit and mid Michigan. Bank owned, mortgages multiples of value, abandoned, broken plumbing etc and most effective way to get them off books is bulldoze. We have strict liability laws and not a living soul will advocate for re-cycle. I really don't care for the word recycle in this case because there is not much wrong or not useful with the stuff to begin with. Within three blocks of this particular house people are sleeping on the street and in dumpsters - ironic and stupid!
mjr6550 Posted April 16, 2014 Report Posted April 16, 2014 I wonder how much trouble you can get into by stealing from (er.. performing free demolition services on) abandoned houses?
Les Posted April 17, 2014 Author Report Posted April 17, 2014 23months to 59months if the judge is in a good mood!
kurt Posted April 17, 2014 Report Posted April 17, 2014 Is that last pic a wormhole to parallel a universe?
