[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People like you should mind their own business, or you may stumble on a wrong person to bother one day.  Complainers get found out and if the person is less tolerant, they can pursue you and make your life a living hell.  Think anything from petty passive aggressive annoyances, to harassment law suits, to mafia style bat to your knees kind of thing or damage to your property.  Once the war happens, it will be much less pleasant to live in your house and having an eyesore on the street will be the least of your worries.

I'm not the OP, but I would much rather have her as my neighbor than you. You sound scary.[/quote]

+1  I love it when people say this.  "Oh, you should just live with an ugly, crumbling house because your neighbor will stalk you and make your life hell."  This is why most cities/municipalities have ways for residents to anonymously report these issues.  I live in DC, know where the list of vacant homes can be located on DC.GOV, and have reported at least three vacant homes in my community that weren't on it.  If you are going to essentially abandon a home, you better believe I am going to make sure you pay taxes out the nose given that you should just sell the damn place anyway and let it be put to some proper use as opposed to being a haven for vermin and God only knows what.

Good luck telling people what to do with their property, vacant homes are not illegal and living in a home part time is also not illegal.  And unless you have HOA, nobody can tell you what to do with the facade of your home or your landscaping. [/quote]

Hey you libertarian blowhard - I live in DC. I don't tell them anything - BECAUSE IN A VANCANT HOME THERE IS NO ONE TO TELL.  The city investigates notices of vacant property and if it is determined that it is not occupied and has not been occupied for a set period then the owner gets hit with a hefty tax bill.  It's one thing DC does right - if you essentially abandon your home and refuse to maintain it, you will pay out the nose in taxes (10% a year) until you wise up and sell.  And if you refuse to pay the taxes, the city will put a lien on your property and take their cut when you do get forced to sell.  Boo effing hoo if you don't like it.  Don't buy a damned property if you are going to treat it like shit, disrespecting your neighbors and the whole fucking city.  [/quote]
