Here's some of their homes....so I don't want to hear about their issues....nor be lectured by the about anything they 'think' troubles them...nada...nothing!!
Sorry I was out of town. Those houses are really white elephants.
Can you imagine the total operating costs on the top house for the next 30 years? Property taxes, insurance, maintenance, and upkeep. How long would it take you to paint it? Clean it? Cost to re-roof it in 30 years? These guys would be better served getting a normal house they could have a chance of retaining after retirement.
