Way back in the day my great grandfather and his brother bought a piece of property in Jacksonville, FL.
His idea was that the land was going to be a big up and coming area.
It was going to sell for millions and the family would be set. There was a family feud over the land that caused the brothers not to speak until their death. The next two generations fought tirelessly over the land and there was even a house built. Now it has come to my generation and nobody wanted it. I am the one that got stuck with that terrible house in Jacksonville, FL. You might think it would be a good house due to the location. Well it is actually quite small, the ground is terrible for the house, and there isn’t a great view. Basically it is falling into the ground. To build it right, there would need to be special building material so the house won’t sink. All of that is before you hire people to remove all the weeds, branches, trees, and garbage. The amount of money needed to make the property feasible would be obscene. I didn’t want to own a condemned, ugly home in Jacksonville, FL. I don’t even live there! I started looking around to see if someone would buy my condemned home for cash. The cash home buyer market is so much better than real estate agents. They don’t mess around with pricing. Sure it wasn’t a whole lot of money but what I was giving them was so inferior. I knew my parents would be appalled I sold it but I really didn’t want it.
