Did you hear about the woman who won a house on Ebay for 1.75? The only catch is she has to pay $850.00 in back taxes and yard clean up. I still think this sounds like a great deal to me. A house for under $1,000 bucks. You can see in the pic the house looks a little run down, but I am sure it could be fixed up and still be the deal of the century. What do you think? Would you do something like this?

Good day....That is great news and a great bargain. I mean a house and don't forget lot (which is more important in IMHO) under 1000 dollars is really a good break. It's a good investment though I wonder what state the house and lot is located?

I read this on Yahoo the other day. Ever since I read it, I have wondered what this house looks like it. And you know, for some reason, I imagined it looking a lot bigger than that. But hey, a house is a hour for $1.75. I still think a house for under $1000 is a good buy, but it's obviously going to need a lot of pickup.

Yeah, I saw this on Yahoo news this morning. The woman said that she doesn't want to move and that she will be selling the house but the article also said that she's going to have to pay $850 in back taxes and fines on it, since it's an abandoned house. So, there's always a catch to these sort of things I guess...
