Sheriff deputies showed up at my place TWICE to arrest a previous tenant. They didn’t bother to check out the county sales records first. I live in Sonoma,Ca.
lol, in my post, I was talking about the couple in the article and their new baby...
But I can empathize with you on yours. I was in the process of buying a couple of acres on the side of a lake to build my retirement cabin. It had had a mobile home on it previously, and it had beautiful just plain wrought iron fencing already built around it, which you need for there for the deer. It had a water well, meter loop, septic tank, et al already on it, and the price was fabulous. It also had a big concrete slab right in the middle of it. And the day before I was to sign the papers for it, I went to make sure I had the right measurements on the slab cuz I wanted to make sure how big a pre-cut log cabin kit I could order and put in front of the slab so I could use it, instead of digging it up.
Annnnyway, I was measuring away like a happy camper and enjoying the prospect of my new happy home, when two big black vans show up and agents march right over to the corner of my lot and start digging away. lol
To make a too long story short, the prior owner had been a mid-level drug dealer and evidently they were getting info out of the jail on his stash. When I asked them if they might have to come dig again, they could not assure me that they wouldn’t. ROFL
I went ahead and bought it anyway. I’m not afraid of much. And haven’t had any problems for three years...so far.
That’s what made me think of the prior owner druggie across the street in that article, lol
