Somebody you know is selling an acre of land on a lake, not a shed. This land is probably worth that much with no improvements at all

Op doesn’t understand how badly mfers want to live on a lake in the woods. Electrical and a shed is a bonus.

It’s always land value plus house value. A friend of mine bought an old farm house on a large piece of land for less than a used car’s worth. Why so cheap? The land would be worth a fortune alone, but the farm house was a few hundred years old (take that, USA!), in a bad shape, and listed as a protected building, i.e. he had to do any kind of “making it habitable” under close scrutiny of bureaucrats and historians. The family worked their asses off every weekend for over a decade and spent a fortune on historically correct materials.

I mean it has electrical service, water, and either sewer or septic. Still feels a little high but a full acre on a lake is valuable

Terrible Estate Agent Photos

!badrealestate@feddit.uk

Create post

Terrible photos listed by estate agents/realtors that are so bad they’re funny.

Posting guidelines.

Posts in this community must be of property (inside or out) listed for sale which contains a terrible element. “Terrible” can refer to:

  • the photo itself (finger over the lens, too far away, people in the shot, bad Photoshop, etc.)

  • the property (weird layout, questionable plumbing, unsound structure, etc.)

  • the interior (carpeted bathrooms, awful taste interiors, weird mannequins/taxidermies/art, inflatable pools indoors, etc.)

  • the actual listing itself including unusual descriptions and unrealistic pricing. However, this isn’t a community to discuss the housing market in general. This is a comedic community - let’s keep it light.

  • Photos can be sourced from anywhere and be any age, but please check they haven’t already been posted.

  • Censor any names/contact details of private individuals.

  • Mark the post NSFW if it includes nudity or sensitive content

Rules.

This community follows the rules of the feddit.uk instance and the lemmy.org code of conduct. I’ve summarised them here:

  • Be civil, remember the human.
  • No insulting or harassing other members. That includes name-calling.
  • Respect differences of opinion. Civil discussion/debate is fine, arguing is not. Criticise ideas, not people.
  • Keep unrequested/unstructured critique to a minimum.
  • Remember we have all chosen to be here voluntarily. Respect the spent time and effort people have spent creating posts in order to share something they find amusing with you.
  • Swearing in general is fine, swearing to insult another commenter isn’t.
  • No racism, sexism, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia or any other type of bigotry.
  • No incitement of violence or promotion of violent ideologies.
