Is this a joke/parody of the current housing market?

[Anonymous]

It's a bit late to be an April Fools' joke. But is this a joke or for real? https://www.redfin.com/VA/Fairfax/3709-Prado-Pl-22031/home/9617644
"CASH OFFERS ONLY NO ACCESS to see lower level and Home sold AS IS ONLY with acknowledgement that home will convey with a person(s) living in lower level with no lease in place"

Read - there is a squatter in the house. And they have the pictures to prove it. What's with the deliberate pictures of all the soda bottles and the broken flower pot and broken/overturned furniture?

WTH???

How strange. And they want 800K LOL

Can a house actually convey with a tenant?

Stained towel in the bathroom is a nice touch.

I don't get it. Is there a squatter? Or is it some type of verbal rental? It makes no sense.

Must be a squatter.

[Anonymous]

Do the empty soda bottles on the kitchen counter convey?

[Anonymous]

Truth in advertising! I guess they really want you to know what you're getting into. Just like those scam emails always deliberately misspell things

Like the movie Parasite. Home conveys with person squatting in the basement.

[Anonymous]

There must be something more to this like they must list it to evict the squatter

[Anonymous]

Maybe for those who have the willingness/means to evict a squatter, this is a bargain

Every part of the description basically says that the house is a complete disaster. Even the agent was like -- yeah, I am not even going to try to make this house look livable.

"Specific POA for Betty Jean Hall to sign is in place, however if owner passes before set closing date there will be no penalty to Estate for delay and contract will remain in full force and affect until probate is finished to determine who signs at closing. Seller prefers Universal Title - Fairfax office Title Search has been completed DO NOT access lower level. DO NOT show basement area Evicting person or persons in basement is to be solely the responsibility of Purchaser per contract. Seller will need 45-60 day rentback to vacate personal belongings We have no idea as to the age of roof or HVAC or kitchen renovation. Call Listing agent for more details about lower level"

Wow, intriguing. Thanks for the actual useful information! How does one even go about evicting a squatter?
