It pays to have your mail forwarded, even if it costs a few bucks a month....

Some Germans who have had to spend time in the hospital have returned home to find that the government has “relocated” so called “immigrants” in their home and have given the formerly hospitalized resident a jack boot to the butt.

They had all the signs to know that someone was living here,â€
You mean like nobody ever at home, lawn not cared for, mail piling up?

He was in Florida......................... I'll bet he was ignoring the notices well before his Florida trip. This sort of thing doesn't go from first notice to bulldozer in six months.

The folks next door left their home on Christmas Eve in 2012. Never made another payment.
This past March a couple of kids bought it.
It took three full days just to get the lawn cleared and cut.
I got used to just cutting their weeds off my fence and leaving them there.

Exactly...this kind of thing usually takes years, not months. This guy would have had to have been blowing the city off for several years under normal circumstances...maybe 5 to 10 years if the city is slow about dealing with dilapidated housing. In some cities, it can take several years just to get the weeds cut on an overgrown, abandoned lot. Just think how long it could take for a municipality to run the legal gamut to knock down a house that's about to collapse in ruins.
I'll bet that if you looked at the file on this property down at city hall, it would be stuffed with copies of unanswered correspondence addressed to this guy, telling him that if he didn't deal with his housing repair issues, that the city would deal with them for him. Cities normally don't just go out and knock down a house because they feel like doing it all of a sudden one day.
