[quote=svelte]For my wife and I, whether a death would affect our decision would depend on the cause of death.
If it was a murder where the assailant is unknown, we probably would not buy for fear there is some sort of continuing grudge against the family. We can’t exactly hang a “the XYZ family has MOVED and no longer lives here!” banner across the front of the house.
If the death was of natural causes, it might give us pause if it happened recently (like the 3 year figure) but price fixes everything. 🙂 For the right price, we’d buy it![/quote]
Totally agree.
That is why I made the mob hit comment…
My buddy has a girlfriend who rents a place where someone died. She claims the spectre visits here from time to time. One of the so called benevolt ghost it think. I was kind of shocked that she brought it up because we were at a dinner party with ppl she really didn’t know that well. Before I knew half of the people in the room had personal ghost stories… Couldn’t believe it… But hey… I don’t judge.
Point is…
Ghost just don’t like me… They just don’t find me that interesting of a personality to reveal themselves to me! 😛
Plus I catch one living in my house they are going to do the vacumming and BETTER leave the toliet seat up!
😛
CE
P.S. Svelte… That is brilliant idea… Hell! We both grew up with Scooby Doo… We find a house on the MLS… Fake haunt it for 6 months… Watch the asking price fall to zero… and with luck some meddling kids won’t come around before the bid goes through… Perfect!
P.S.S.
Because I cannot add great wisdom to the board I will be the comic relief from now on! 😛
