Happy New Year!

Collapsed Pool

BREAKING NEWS UPDATE!
Wouldn't Akubi look adorably pissed off in this Hello Kitty™ costume?


While browsing for Sweet Deals™ I discovered this gem. If you're tempted to snap it up, I'm sorry to say it is in firm escrow.

I just love the description of this lovely house:

WARNING, the pool in the rear of yard has collapsed in on itself. The pool deck arond the pool is very dangerous. We are advising that you not enter the rear yard, and if you do enter the rear yard, you are doing so at your own risk. The City of Petaluma may be requiring a soils report.

According to Zillow someone just paid 465K for this POS on 11/30/2007. There must be another Casey out there.

Speaking of Sweet Deals™, upon closer examination my latest find isn't all that impressive. They did a half-ass job on the foundation and ruined the feng shui of the living room by adding a stairway to the "loft" in the attic and didn't bother to obtain permits. When I crawled under the house I discovered that parts of the foundation looked as bad as this one.

Nice chart.
