Stupid Property Repairs #12

I have been collecting some interesting pictures over the last 30 days.  I haven’t found one house that was completely stupid, but a one or two in several houses.  Here we go:

Interesting lack of plumbing. Who gets to empty this?

Mom!  Have you seen my favorite jeans?

Son, they are on the couch downstairs.

Just pour the water off your roof and into that vacant house next door!

I am not so sure that water runs uphill on this planet!

I love what people do to fix things.  Enjoy!

Scott,

I crack up seeing this series!! Believe me, these type of things aren’t just happening in your neck of the woods! I looked at a property over the weekend which had a huge culvert in the front yard. Not what you would thing though, it was mounted VERTICALLY!! straight down into the ground, at the bottom of which was a large pool of water with a pump circulating the water endlessly into itself. I was told it was a sump pump, but… looked to me more like a graveyard waiting to happen.

These are awesome Scott! It is amazing to see what kind of crazy repairs people do to their properties.

I am always amazed at the homes we see out there as agents. Thanks for the Monday morning laugh today.

This is a GREAT blog, all the type of info I have been looking for.

The stupid repairs are great! You should submit the bucket/sink to http://thereifixedit.com/ It’s a site full of this sort of thing. Nice way to break up the day with a laugh.
Thanks – Jade
