(2,857 posts)But the real reason I think they (mom and daughter) were looney toons is that after just a couple of days they wanted to paint my house a different color. It was freshly painted a neutral color that went well with just about any furniture. They wanted "vibrant" colors.. said they would pay a professional to do it but I was not wanting to get stuck with orange walls when they moved. Then they decided they wanted to buy the house. I told them 120k and they could have it. Then they wanted me to do owner financing with the daughter who had no job or education... No.
So a couple of days later they told me they had decided to buy the house next door to mine. They kept me on the hook till the 1st of the month saying the elderly mom was going to live in my house instead of being put in an assisted living situation then they would all have privacy. They moved what junk they had brought and some they didn't, including the remotes to my ceiling fans, lol.
So this whole month, the husband had yet to show up. He was a physical therapist and he was supposed to be packing up their stuff while he worked out his notice. She was supposed to be finding a home for the mom. He never brought anything but a suitcase. They decided it was too much to deal with and rented furniture. He passed away a couple of months later and the rental companies called me wanting in my house to recover the furniture because they never paid. They never told the rental company they moved.
I thought it was all a scam and wanted no part of a owner financing deal, but the neighbor fell for it. I think the women moved on and left them with a mess from what I heard.
I'm sorry I offended you. I am constantly trying to convince people that our way of electing a POTUS doesn't give your residents as equal a voice as other states. I often try to get demo to move here in hopes of changing our state to be more like yours.
