I'm laughing because3 my neighhbor just offered his house to anybody who would clear out all the junk in his garage. This is great, also sad.

this is actually rather sad. Makes me feel bad for the person, in a rather odd way.

Nobody is going to give away

- submitted by Anonymous on 12/03/2008

Nobody is going to give away a house for $250.00. It's just a ploy to get people interested. Fake.

Um hello?

To the "Nobody is going to give away" person....Of course he's not going to give his house away for 250, and of course it's JUST A JOKE. Get a sense of humor.

Not surprised

Few months back somebody bought a hous for $1 over ebay. It was in the news. So not surprising that he is willing to sell at $250.00

the $1 house was abandoned in a bad neighborhood and you'd have to pay property tax on how much the city decides the house is worth. property tax isn't necessarily cheap.

+Remainder of Mortgage

- submitted by Anonymous on 12/03/2008

I am sure it is $1 + remainder of the mortgage. Since most people have mortgages, it is unlikely the person trying to get out of the house is going to fork over the doe for that and give away the house.

It's $250,000.... $250. is just shorthand, look at the rest of the numbers.

the rest of the numbers like $230.000 just above it? like, damn, today's deal sucks?

There was already a price

There was already a price posted for 230K, it's not posted for 250K. the $250.00 stands as valid satire.

I believe it looks like he put .00 and made the 00 small to signify cents.

OMG, it's 250.00, jeez you

OMG, it's 250.00, jeez you don't need to so deconstruct. It's funny. Bus fare and a few bucks and you get my crappy house and cider. sounds like a good deal!

There was no Mortgage on that house sold on ebay.

There are tons of houses in Detroit for well under $1,000. There's no reason to believe this is fake.

It's not short hand, the 250

- submitted by Anonymouse on 12/03/2008

It's not short hand, the 250 distinctly has two zeroes in superscript to represent cents. Plus, right before he goes to 250.00, he makes a $230,000 attempt. If you couldn't sell your house, why would you up the price?

I'm assuming last comment is a joke, if so I applaud it. It's funny so it must be shopped! LOL

To the people who think this is fake...

- submitted by Anonymous on 12/03/2008

It probably isn't. I see a comment on here saying 'there is no way someone would sell a house that cheap'. A house sold in Michigan for a $1.50 on eBay. Look it up. Now that is truly sad.

It's totally real

But he didn't mention that the bus fare will cost around $215,000.
