Bought a tiny, cheap, very run-down house in a good location. After I signed papers to buy, the previous owner told me he was happy to get rid of the dump. Talked my future husband into helping me fix it up. We about broke even when we sold it after a few years. Recently saw it was under contract for almost half a million dollars.

Wait a minute, the King pays property tax? I thought the King collected property tax. Either way, he has a good attitude.

Replacing knob and tube wiring is even harder when you have to drill through stone floors and walls.

You can buy a castle in Spain (or is it Italy?) for €1. But to close the deal you have to prove you have several million euros ready to fix it up.

This is why so many historical estates in the UK have to host public tours to pay for the upkeep.

…and how long has it been since they dredged the moat? It smells like it is overflowing with sewage, and needs to be dredged.

Somewhere in California, New York, or maybe Illinois. And he’s heading to Texas or Florida.
