Really? Bc my non-white husband and I live a neighborhood over and he is frequently pissed by people assuming he is a service worker - both neighbors and other workers/strangers coming to the house.
My DH is the whitest white man but
he is the only man below 60 in our neighborhood who does any kind of yard
He is asked — often in high school
Spanish— if he has any openings in his schedule.
That makes no sense unless he also has pane van or pickup filled with yard equipment. No walks over to work on someone’s yard with only hand equipment.
Same reason why the owners story made no sense. I doubt he was dress in gardening clothes, nor carrying gardening tools, and definitely wasn’t parking a yard equipment van (all of which have their phone number and adverts).

The hypocrisy is amazing. Even if the couple always planned to raze the house and flip it, so what. That's legal. So is building multiple units there.
Boo hoo. Elections have consequences. When will people finally wake up.
Neighbors are allowed to express to their neighbors about things they prefer not to happen, and you are free to ignore them.
Of course, the buyer never intended to live there, so calling them “neighbors” is a stretch.
They were never going to buy their dream home; read about the business they run and the plan is clear.

Yes, they increased the value of the property 3x by knocking down some trees.
Seems like they will be lucky to get their money back. I’m guessing they underestimated how tough it would be to redevelop. Oh well so sad
Unless they left impervious surfaces like driveways, patios, slabs that held out buildings, Arlington will make them use extensive storm water management measures.
Builders who buy tear downs with little impervious surface are putting in driveways before applying for the tear downs permits to reduce storm water requirements.
