Look ma! There's a house in the road!

It's still sitting there, BTW... on the side of the road... funny, but sad

OH MY! LOL

But, ya know...I don't think you could pay me to take that home. I've moved mobile homes before and what a nightmare! No thank you. Good Luck to the new owners!

Good God!

Why do they even move houses? You'd think it would be cheaper to build a new one and have your walls uncracked.

Well, out here where an undeveloped acre goes for something over $500k and where it would be MUCH less expensive to just expand the house than to build a new one, it's quite pracitcal...

500k? Where do you live?

I own about 30 acres on the Maryland Eastern Shore, and if I could get $5 for 'em I'd be happy!!!!

anyone think to look under the house, see if there's a dead witch down there?

JK: Moron Hell, CA. South of the Silicon Valley. Average house price is $500k. Ours could easily go for $750-$800k, just because it's a decent house on a decently landscaped acre, with million dollar houses on *SMALLER* lots of land the next street.

Well a few years ago they moved a Dr. office building about from about 3/4 a mile away to an area right below where I live. they said it was a 50k building, and the move cost less than 20k. So for short distances it may very well be worth it. I heard though two story houses come out with cracked walls and internal damage though.

Hey JeffKardde, you live on the Eastern Shore? I live about one hour away from Annapolis, my old stomping ground! Surely you've been there.
