Putting my money where my mouth is and meeting no_such_reality’s criteria:
Group home 2 doors down from me, in suburban Morgan Hill, Temecula (it’s not the only group home here in this high-end Temecula tract, we are surrounded and don’t know it). This is not the first time for me; I lived in the downtown of a major city for 10 years, surrounded by halfway houses and homes for the mentally disabled, and had no problem reselling 2 condos.
Granted, this group home is not for the “mentally disabled ” (OMG, level 3-7, killwind), merely old age. People that live in this house, they wet their knickers! They drool! They forget their addresses! They look funny! Their hair is white! They can’t remember anything! They die here 2 doors down from me and the coroner discretely picks them up!
Temeculaguy, didn’t the (seller’s) agent disclose this to you? Sue, Sue, Sue!
Crap, nothing is selling on this street. 4 out of 5 homes cancel escrow. Mercy me, what can it be? A recession/depression perhaps? No, of course not. IT’S THEIR FAULT THAT MY PROPERTY VALUE HAS
PLUMMETED!
Tomorrow I’m going to knock on the group home door and ask them if I can help them in any way, or just invite them to dinner. I feel I have been remiss and killwind’s comments have jolted me into action.
Right now in my house we have a Christmas dinner guest who is physically and mentally disabled, and lives in a group home of this sort.
I helped his relatives move him into his group home. At the time the neighbors had hurtful protest signs across the street. Since then there have been no problems at all.
Whenever you buy a house there is always a risk that someone you don’t like will move in nearby. Maybe you are “right” maybe you aren’t. I have a relative who felt obliged to sell his co-op in New York because of noisy new neighbors.
