There is a property near our house that is clearly deserted (smashed windows, front door left open, grass two feet high etc). We walk past it regularly and day dream about buying it and doing it up - would be lovely when done.
Pricefinder tells me the sale history:
$1,060,000 11/10/2003 Normal Sale
$430,000 06/05/2002 Normal Sale
$337,500 17/10/1992 Normal Sale
So someone bought it in 2003 for over a million dollars ... $630k more than it sold for the year before, and then have left it deserted??? wtf?
Anyone have a rational explanation for this sort of thing?
