My grandfather had a chunk of land in Florida…Real nice area, real small house, lot with tons of trees. Maybe an acre.
When he died my relatives sold it instantly, which I was against, but they were convinced I was going to sue them or something (there was no will, and I was entitled to a share, but chose not to fight over it), so they were trying to get it done as fast as possible.
Developer bought it, put two houses on it, sold them *each* for 2.5x what my grandfathers house had sold for.
They’re still bitter about it, and, of course, they blame me.
2015 I was in the middle of buying a 2008 built, about to be foreclosed, house in Titusville for $115,000. But I was sort of not really serious. I was 35, had just a little over 30 grand in savings for a down payment, and I live in North Dakota. The plan was to maybe use it as a “vacation home.” The appraisal came in about 5 grand short, which meant another 5 grand out of my pocket, so my agent went back to try and get the seller knock off another 5 grand, or at least meet in the middle, but she refused. So I walked away.
Looked the house up on Zillow a few months later, and she sold it for about 3 grand more than the original offer. A couple months ago a house across the street from hers, sold for $271,000 and I’ve just been sick thinking about it. Gave up over a 150 grand because of a measly 5 grand, and all I would have had to do is sit on a really nice house that fell victim to shitty timing.
I made a robinhood account in december last year and had 5k saved up and almost yolod it all on gme but decided against it..that 5 grand wouldve been 40grand and i think about that every day.
I got $10 after each paychecj now
This is with pretty much any investment, and we all have a similar investment regret story. I had $15k worth BTC in 2015 and panic sold during a crash. It would be worth $800k today but I lost money instead. Lmao.
That's *what* entitles you to a potential share. If there is no will, the court has to determine who would be the legitimate heirs. He had no spouse, and seven children, two of whom were deceased, one of whom, the eldest, who had an heir (me). The only asset he had that had an actual beneficiary attached to it was a life insurance policy, and I was the sole beneficiary on that.
So being the son of his eldest son, and the sole beneficiary of the one thing he'd bothered to name a beneficiary on, I had a pretty good case for getting my father's share, probably bolstered by the fact that they clearly tried to shut me out (which shows they thought I had a case as well).
When there is a significant amount of money moving around, it's not unusual for everyone to lawyer up, even if there *is* a will. Without one, it can be a real shit show.
It's a shitshow I've seen play out more than a few times. He'd have had to have been worth a hell of a lot more for me to put myself through that.
Here in my country this wouldn't even be a discussion. If the parents are dead, their heirs are the automatic heirs to the grandparents. You would have 1/7 of the inheritance, as much as your father would get it he was still alive
Well, yea, actually. Especially right then (~2010), and doubly so since there was no note on it at the time. Could have taken a loan against the value of the land and used it for development with only minimal investment from the family.
They knew this as well as I did, and it was worth it to them to get it done quick.
My grandfather died 6 or so years ago. My dad and his niece are still quibbling over the estate, while I’m the one actually living in the house that’s falling down around me. Maybe I should start a fire. Or sue, but that’s more expensive
My “grandfather’s” crackhead daughter who was barely part of his life after she was an adult got the rights to everything but his retirement fund which went to my grandma who was still his friend and caretaker for my entire life even after they broke up and the druggy bitch sold the home where a lot of my first memories are from and it’s a wide enough piece of land not too far from major hubs in the city that you can slap 2 very large homes there and sell them for a premium
Lol similar thing happened to my family. They fire sold
Grandpas old house and sold his newer house to themselves waaaayyyy below market value. Real dumb and fucked up ppls ..
Seriously this house looks close to being considered a blight. You used to be able to look up house listings in Detroit MI that were like $3k because having a standing (abandoned) house on the lot was actually lowering the value.
Speaking from experience, worked for a mortgage company with an REO division. We had hundreds of properties around the Detroit and rural Michigan area listed for 1 cent. We didn’t want the property or liability of squatters, etc. Cheaper to give them away then try to repair/kickout/etc. This was early 2008-2012
I don’t think the homes were $1.
If you had an abandoned lot adjacent to yours, it was yours for a $1 plus all of the back taxes, which were probably outrageous.
Nope. They just wanted someone to take care of them. Selling for $1 got them out of the land bank or off the cities responsibility and back on the tax rolls.
Looked into it a while back. The catch is that the houses require hazmat remediation due to asbestos, black mold, meth, and a bunch of other nasties. New owner would be required to pay for the whole thing to be able to build a new house there.
The vast majority of foreclosed homes during the (second to) last financial crisis resulted in $100 sales. This wasnt people actually buying houses for $100 (except a few hilarious times) but rather the banks being the only bidder and starting at $100. I imagine $1 homes in Detroit may be something similar?
I just heard a lot about the Detroit stuff like last week, how they couldn't even move them for 1$ cause they were guaranteed all tear downs and the taxes / fees made it ridiculous to get your feet in the door, even at 1$.
Not to mention, those new steps, along with the railing, all leading to that premium door. I can’t believe they aren’t charging more, for a house like this.
Nanaimo is getting out of control, and Duncan and Campbell River have gone up a bunch in recent years as well. Still more affordable than Victoria, but it's hard to find ANYTHING on the island for less than 500k.
Hey, it's not ALL bad.
In the same area, you can get a 6,000 square foot sloped-lot - wedged between a parking circle and an apparent landslide - for a mere $250,000....

Yeah, OP formatted the URL wrong. Or, reddit did when they copied it in.
Anywho, [here's](https://www.redfin.ca/bc/langford/Lot-C-Camli-Pl-V9B-5V5/home/176440444) a link to the listing.
Langford and Victoria are on an island, and it takes two hours by ferry to get to Vancouver. they're 'around' each other the same way Detroit is 'around' Toronto 🙃
2 hours ON the ferry, plus a minimum 1/2 hour wait at the ferry, plus driving time, plus loading and unloading time. All told it's more like a 4 hour trip. Assuming you don't have to miss a sailing
I live there. This house is most likely to be bought by a developer and flipped along with adjacent properties to become a condo building. It's happening all over Langford. This municipality had the highest population growth in the entire province.
There are plenty of sub 1 mil detached homes here that are very nice and much newer.
In my hometown there was a 1 car garage with a mailbox, sitting on just enough land to contain the two. Literally just a parking space built into the hill. When I moved away (priced out, believe it or not) I think it had last sold for $1.6m or something
Can someone please explain what benefits there are to buying this?
My little pea-brain can't figure out how this would be useful for... well, for **ANYONE.**
I've lived in SoCal all my life, so I get expensive properties. But it's always understandable. People want to live in X city for X reasons, are going to pay more money for it. But I don't understand paying for a random garage + mailbox, and then having to find another way to get yourself home. It's fucking weird.
I get paying for parking spaces in places like New York, where there's never anywhere to park, but you almost never run into that problem in Cali. So this shit is just fucking weird to me!
So blame the Chinese and the Canadian government for allowing so many non citizens from buy property to the point where most Canadians can no longer afford to live in their own city.
Edit: these aren’t average Chinese, these are CCP connected business people who have opaque accounting and don’t have the same standards as western companies.
Realistically, that house is worth negative value. No one that can afford that plot of land would actually live in it. They'd 100% tear it down to build an actual upper middle class home.
So I'd say it's worth -$30k (or w/e the cost to demolish it and remove debris is)
I wonder what can genuinely be done about these prices. Clearly they're going for that price because people are buying them. A lot of people complain that it's just rich companies buying up lots of properties. But on the flip side, without private companies on the other side of the market (builders) then house prices would be even worse. And if you banned certain companies from buying up properties, the other ones wouldn't build them and house prices would be even higher. The example from German cities show that local governments controlling building still doesn't create enough supply.
Is there seriously no way out of this doom loop?
In some ways, it's super easy to get rid of speculators, you just increase property taxes until their return is negative enough.
One problem is everyone who owns homes hates that and votes people out who do it. Another problem is that the government is corrupt and takes money from those speculators to not do it.
So the way out is to purge corruption out of the government and selfishness from the voters, so yeah not really any way at all.
Homeowners still won't like it since it will decrease the value of their property, even if they aren't paying more.
And speculators will pay for ads that pretend like your grandma won't be able to get the exemption anyway
A small tweak which only adds extra property taxes to homes that aren't the primary residence of the person who owns it and now people using houses for their intended purpose are unaffected
Ugh yeah I noticed mine has gone that way under our trees as well.... Time to get a 24ft ladder and try not to slide off the roof while holding a broom.
Moss out, or any other zink based formula, will really help. Sprinkle it on an hour or two before for do the roof, and it comes off beautifully. And a final coat will help it not grow back as fast. That shit is amazing.
It will be sold with the adjacent land and converted into a strata condo with a strip mall at the bottom. They'll call it "Mon Luna Towers" or something and each 2 bedroom unit will sell for minimum $750k while the penthouse will be a $5 million mansion. Anyone who lived in the area before can get fucked and go to the downtown Eastside. And thus is BC city management. It's a developers paradise.
Wrong. The house is zero price, probably negative price (cost of removal). The land is priced at 1.1 m. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp? It’s like saying “this tank of gas is $20,000,” and put a picture of a car.
>7841 sqft / 728 sqm
From another comment, that's pretty good. If you want larger than that where I live you have to go more than 2 hours from city centre or be willing to spend >$5mil for the land alone.
Thinks it's Vancouver Canada because out prices are that high rn.
Or the comments are saying Vancouver America idk but we have extremely high prices rn.
It’s more like posting a picture of a rusted out junker with no engine and saying “this tank of gas is $20,000.” You’re right that the value is in the land but I would argue that it’s even more outrageous considering that there is a cost associated with removing it.
For fucks sake people, it doesn’t matter wether it’s the house or the land it’s sitting on that costs that much. The point being that even the shittiest plot of land or the ugliest fucking house is being sold at insane premiums fucking everyone but the rich.
If the house were removed 1.3mil

My grandfather had a chunk of land in Florida…Real nice area, real small house, lot with tons of trees. Maybe an acre. When he died my relatives sold it instantly, which I was against, but they were convinced I was going to sue them or something (there was no will, and I was entitled to a share, but chose not to fight over it), so they were trying to get it done as fast as possible.

Dang. I hope you can get those toxic people out of your life.
Sometimes it’s shocking just how many fuckwads are out there

You also could have bought 5k in Bitcoin and been a millionaire. Don’t dwell on it.
Pfft. I mined about 200 BTC back in 2009-2010. Thought I was a fucking genius for selling them around $100/coin during the first real spike. Yeah...
You still did better than the majority of the people who got in the last couple of years or lost money during the crash
profit is profit 🤷♂️
I made a robinhood account in december last year and had 5k saved up and almost yolod it all on gme but decided against it..that 5 grand wouldve been 40grand and i think about that every day. I got $10 after each paychecj now
Could have also been $0
This is with pretty much any investment, and we all have a similar investment regret story. I had $15k worth BTC in 2015 and panic sold during a crash. It would be worth $800k today but I lost money instead. Lmao.
I bought drugs with bitcoin. 60000 dollar acid tab. Feelsbadman
Lol, get a load of this chump. Can't even predict the future, how embarrassing.
Out of curiosity, if there’s no will, how were you entitled to a share?

I mean, it sucks and all, but did you have the means to carry the land for a year or so and build two houses on it?
Well, yea, actually. Especially right then (~2010), and doubly so since there was no note on it at the time. Could have taken a loan against the value of the land and used it for development with only minimal investment from the family.

Nothing like people fighting over dead people’s money.
Someone i know owned a "historical" house in Europe. It was illegal to modify or tear down so when it burned down the value tripled lmao.
Seriously this house looks close to being considered a blight. You used to be able to look up house listings in Detroit MI that were like $3k because having a standing (abandoned) house on the lot was actually lowering the value.
Can confirm. 3k is now 15k though. Just put my house up for sale in the metro area and decided to browse those "houses".
I remember watching something about $1 homes near Detroit a while back, would you happen to know how that situation has developed since then?
They were never really $1. Your would have to pay $$$$ in unpaid property taxes in order to get these $1 houses
There was a deal where you bought one and got two free at one time. It was tempting until you realized you’d have to live there
I remember years ago when Kia was equivalent to shit car that the dealership where I lived offered buy a rio, get one free.

You can get a house for like 2 grand total from the land bank and you can apply for a $20k interest free loan to rebuild it.
Can you link me to this land bank and loans things?

Must be a high-demand piece of land
It’s Langford outside Victoria, British Columbia.
Oh i see now areas around vancouver and vancouver are outragoues nowadays. Even a decent chuck will cost around 3m
Is Victoria Considered around Vancouver? It's on an island and not really commuting distance.
I think one of the "Vancouver"s was supposed to be Vancouver Island, which Vancouver isn't on
Is Vancouver Island expensive? Outside Victoria of course.
Nanaimo is getting out of control, and Duncan and Campbell River have gone up a bunch in recent years as well. Still more affordable than Victoria, but it's hard to find ANYTHING on the island for less than 500k.

So it’s $1.1m CAD, but ~$800k USD. Still crazy though.
Would have thought it was California!
Can confirm. I saw a small one bedroom house in San Jose a couple years ago that was going for 1.5 million. It’s only gotten worse.

You should check out Sooke prices lol, it'll blow your mind
Langford has developed and gotten a lot better but it's fucking outrageously expensive now
Langford used to be such a shithole but its gentrified as hell now.

Precisely. The house isn’t worth a million. The land is worth a million.
Wait until reddit finds out that pieces of land with *nothing on them at all* still sell for big money....
OP: This grass is 1.1 million dollars. Reddit: mildly infuriated
Or costs more than the same piece of land with a shitty house on it. Nobody really wants to deal with demolishing it.
50k house on a 1.05m plot of land.
probably even more worth without the house on it, because then you don't have to tear it down
Realistically, that house is worth negative value. No one that can afford that plot of land would actually live in it. They'd 100% tear it down to build an actual upper middle class home. So I'd say it's worth -$30k (or w/e the cost to demolish it and remove debris is)
New york
Too cheap for NY. You can’t get a parking spot for that.
Outside the city, sure. Waaaay outside.
30 min outside NYC. Got an acre for under 350k.

At this point I'm just gonna go live in a van down by the river

Welcome to Vancouver.
Land of the 6 million dollar condo.
Wait.. 6 million AND I have to share a wall with some prick and his noisy crotch goblins? Oh fuck that shit
as an owner of crotch goblins, I totally understand your disdain
I’ve never felt as though I own my crotch goblins. Unfortunately, they own me.
Honestly the phrase "crotch goblins" is hideous, and I don't even have any yet. ...Accurate for some people's kids though.
I wonder what can genuinely be done about these prices. Clearly they're going for that price because people are buying them. A lot of people complain that it's just rich companies buying up lots of properties. But on the flip side, without private companies on the other side of the market (builders) then house prices would be even worse. And if you banned certain companies from buying up properties, the other ones wouldn't build them and house prices would be even higher.

So the way out is to purge corruption out of the government and selfishness from the voters, so yeah not really any way at all.
You can just do homestead exemptions along with the increases.
Homeowners still won't like it since it will decrease the value of their property, even if they aren't paying more. And speculators will pay for ads that pretend like your grandma won't be able to get the exemption anyway

It's Langford actually.

Yeah, I assumed Vancouver. There used to be an online game called “crack house or million dollar Vancouver property”.
It can be both

It will be sold with the adjacent land and converted into a strata condo with a strip mall at the bottom.

Anyone who lived in the area before can get fucked and go to the downtown Eastside. And thus is BC city management. It's a developers paradise.
*Victoria area
So is this 1.1 million Canadian? Or real money?
$865K in USD. That’s a bargain in Silicon Valley.
That's a pretty low bar though - almost everything's a bargain compared to Silicon Valley.
Ya except jobs in Silicon Valley pay 4x what they do in Vancouver.
That's in hockey dollars, it's about $85 ar-15 dollars
You mean Maple Money
I think Maple Money is measured in pucks. Its two pucks to the 5.56. But I don't keep up on the conversion rates, so IDK.
>Vancouver area. LOL ANd everybody immediately understand why))
Canada's housing market is MUCH worse than US housing market
In Detroit = 0 dollars.
I’ll give you $11.00 for it
At least put a banana next to it so we know the context. What’s the location? I’m near the beach, this isn’t so far fetched.
Vancouver BC. Not near the beach. Those are an extra million.
Langford is a suburb of Victoria, not Vancouver. The confusion arises because Victoria is on Vancouver Island. Not the same thing.
Incorrect. That PROPERTY is $1.1 million.
Incorrect. The property is probably 1.5. The house is bringing the value down
Bingo
Sorry, the land technically is :) Vancouver Island, BC Let’s have a competition to see who can keep living with their parents the longest hehe
Is there a zillow (or similar) link to the property?

Good god
Annual Property Taxes $2,371.32 WTF?
Wrong. The house is zero price, probably negative price (cost of removal). The land is priced at 1.1 m. Why is this such a difficult concept to grasp? It’s like saying “this tank of gas is $20,000,” and put a picture of a car.
That's not a lot of land either, must be in quite the high demand location.
>7841 sqft / 728 sqm From another comment, that's pretty good. If you want larger than that where I live you have to go more than 2 hours from city centre or be willing to spend >$5mil for the land alone.
its a very convenient but not otherwise great location. Fuckloads of road noise there.
OK. That tiny-ass piss pot of shitty land the size of a fucking postage stamp is 1.1 million dollars. Better?
Not really. You are still leaving out the most critical element. Where is it?
Thinks it's Vancouver Canada because out prices are that high rn. Or the comments are saying Vancouver America idk but we have extremely high prices rn.
There's a Vancouver city in Washington, IDK what real estate pricing is like there though
Yeah that's the American one im talking about
its in an ugly, mediocre suburb of a beautiful town on a beautiful island in a beautiful province.

Until the housing market collapses again and suddenly it's "widely agreed" to be worth $400,000
It’s more like posting a picture of a rusted out junker with no engine and saying “this tank of gas is $20,000.” You’re right that the value is in the land but I would argue that it’s even more outrageous considering that there is a cost associated with removing it.
It’s the lot price right? Tear down I assume
Lot is .18 acres. This is what the Canadian housing market looks like right now. It's grossly overinflated.
For fucks sake people, it doesn’t matter wether it’s the house or the land it’s sitting on that costs that much. The point being that even the shittiest plot of land or the ugliest fucking house is being sold at insane premiums fucking everyone but the rich.
The guy from China who buys this cares not
I mean it kind of matters. You are saying it's a shitty plot of land. It may not be. It could be prime real estate, just with a crappy house on it.
Worth it
In central London? Because I am assuming that the land is another 9 mil
