As If You Need to Be Told, Why Not to Buy A Home Over the Internet

A Montana family bought a house in Pittsburgh site unseen over the internet through E-Bay. They paid 33,000 for the home and arrived to a home that was a dump. What a surprise.
It truly amazes me that people think that they can take a short cut in the home buying process. If you are going to move somewhere and buy, how can you not make the effort to visit and see the options? Unbelievable, yet totally believable.
It seemed to be a blessing that the family was able to find a good house along the route, Margaret Malone said.
But it turned out that the house wasn’t so good.
The pictures of the house, Malone said, looked nothing like what she and her three children found when they arrived on June 25 to move in.
“We looked at the outside, and I said, ‘We can fix this up,’” Malone said. “Then we went inside, and all I could say, was, ‘Oh, my god.’”
The two-story, brick-and-wood-frame house was in deplorable condition, although the family was forced to stay there, having no place else to go.
A reporter visited the house on Wednesday and found the plaster on the walls cracked and breaking apart, the two water heaters and furnace in the basement tagged as unusable, and junk strewn inside and outside the home. via the Pittsburgh Tribune-Review.
