Stupid Property Repairs #4.5

After last week’s Stupid Property Repair #4, it seems to be the week for notches out of doors. This next one I just found at very nice, but vacant single family house in St. Paul. This property could be a good investment for a single family rental as it was priced at $165k.

I have seen my share of small bathrooms and creative layout. I have even seen the bathroom door almost touch the toilet, but this one seems extreme.

I didn’t take the picture, but that notch is so wide that you can actually see into the bathroom when the door is closed!

	Stupid Property Repairs #13(2) Ahhh. Lucky number 13. I always wonder why anyone buys a house that has fundamental problems like crumbling foundations or less than legal headroom in the 2nd floor. I see this all the time. Then to make matters worse, I have no idea why they will then spend a considerable amount of money cosmetically renovating this [...]

	Stupid Property Repairs #12(4) 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 [...]

	Stupid Property Repairs #11(3) My previous posts have mostly been about one house that was particularly stupid. I have not seen one house that takes the entire cake, lately. Consequently, it has been a while since I posted any new pictures. So here is a montage from Saint Paul Homes to Apple Valley Townhomes. They didn't want to change the [...]
