Come on, @sneakypete
That homeowner may have his home all 'trimmed out' with bump-outs and expensive landscaping...and yet will have to discount his home to match smaller models that don't have the hillbilly problem.
...if he can sell it at all.
@DCPatriot Good for him! If he loves all that stuff,what is to prevent him from offering to do the same for his neighbor,and to keep it up for him?
I will tell you like I told a bitch up at the polling place on election day that heard me talking to someone else,and came up with her mink stole and diamonds (seriously) and asked me "Are you the man that owns that house with all the old cars in the yard?"
When I told her "yes,I am."
Her reply was "When are you going to haul them off? They are ugly to look at when I drive by?"
My response to her was "How the bleep is it any of your bleeping business what *I* have in MY yard,bitch? I have 8 acres that sits 700+ feet off the main road,and you can't even see the house unless you drive up that dirt road,and I there are no other houses within a mile of mine.
The way I see things,here are your options.
1: You can offer me stupid money for it,and once it is yours you can do any damn thing you want to with the land and the cars.
2: You can build me a big-ass garage so I have somewhere to store them out of sight so that when you go out of your way to ride up the dirt road where I live,you won't be offended.
3: You can just STFU and mind your own bleeping business."
Of course there were no actual bleeps harmed in this discussion. I just said what I meant.
She looked shocked. Her husband looked like he wanted to disappear into a crack in the floor.
I personally didn't and still don't give a damn what they or anyone else thinks. If you don't like it,don't look or buy me out. And of course there is also the every popular option number 3.
