Re: Couple Of Bargain Houses For Sale!
Believe it or not, I have seen much worse! (Usually left behind by evicted tenants, or on forclosures)

Re: Couple Of Bargain Houses For Sale!
Went out to look at one, the owner had let a family move in and in exchange for a break on rent, they did 2,000 sq. ft of tile work.
All left over thin set and grout was flushed down every toilet in the house. needless to say, the plumbing backed up. The (renters) left when even they could no longer stand the stench.

Re: Couple Of Bargain Houses For Sale!
OMG. That website is so depressing. I've heard of people pouring bags of concrete down the drains to "get back" at the bank foreclosing on their home, but to see the deterioration in those photos is just sad.

Re: Couple Of Bargain Houses For Sale!
I have been hesitant to purchase another house. The market fell just after I purched two houses. How much more will it fall? All the work I put into them was lost.
