Hanspal didn’t do anything wrong, said a lawyer who recently represented him. “This is the great American legal system … a man can stay in a house with one mortgage payment and he did not do anything illegal in all those 23 years,” attorney William Friedman claimed. “He’s the poster child for a system that has failed.

“He took advantage of the system, he used it and you’re blaming him for being bad for using the system. I don’t buy that. … He’s not a bad guy. The system is bad. He played by the rules. The system is completely broken. Every damn bit of it."

Knowing who to cheat and who not to is the very essence of the game.

A little digging turned up the address of the house. Although described as 3 br, 2.5 ba, it’s only 1.5 ba. There is a listing on redfin, and one is able to see photos of the interior on redfin and zillow. A lot of damage.

A very cute house a few doors down is estimated at about $600K. Another nice house on the block $615K. But the disease Hanspal’s house is on a less desirable lot, right on the corner with an arterial road. I think the investor will be fortunate to get $600K.

Break-even, plus or minus a little.

It was owned by the bank. They paid the property taxes

Like the house burning to the ground. Bank collects the insurance money, former residents of the house have to find someone new to scam.

i remember a story an attorney told—his company was trying to buy the last house in an area and they were going to demolish to build a shopping center the last holdout put a ridiculous price on the house..they made a final offer and luckily the owner accepted so the project could proceed...he said good thing you never know when demoing nearby houses if an accident could happen and accidently put the wrecking ball into the next door house holdout...
