Realtor Horror Stories

[SD Realtor]

Okay so I believe the letter of the code says that the disclosure for death is only mandatory within 3 years. However many buyers do consider it a material fact. I do not know for certain if the death happened past 3 years and if you did not disclose it if there would be a problem. For many clients I have worked with, death IN the home, be it natural causes or otherwise would be a showstopper.

I don’t doubt it being a show-stopper. For my fiancee (I called her my wife above) THAT would be. Doesn’t bother me one bit. Unless it was a mob hit that the mob thinks failed (dont want them coming back to finish the job).

Just find it strange that it has to be listed due to some peoples inability to get over superstition.

Thanks,

I agree. If you live in an house or an old city like Philadelphia, chances are pretty good that someone died in the house.

I hear that in some parts of Europe, burial plots are only leased for 30 years. Then they build on top.

Some parts of San Diego were Indian burial sites.

This is true.
I think I had the only 100+ year old home in the Philly area that didn’t have someone die in it. I know because I bought from the 2nd occupants – a 104 year old woman and her 78 year old daughter – and they rented from the builder (the original occupant).

Personally – I think if someone dies peacefully at home – that’s good karma for a house.

But then again, I have an antique rocking chair that my great grandmother died in… had a big Christmas dinner, sat done in her chair, content, and died.
