House not selling .....just burn it down, literally

Tired of you house not selling?? Sick of your agent ??? Don't want to deal with costly moving expenses?? There is now another option. Just torch your house and leave.

I am making light of this but this is an actual story that happened with this 1.45 million home in Newbury MA. Sad but true:

"She was sick of the house quote, unquote, and she left the house to burn," said Maura Bailey, Assistant District Attorney.

"Ms. Moore told officers she had burned it down," prosecutor Maura Bailey told Doyle yesterday. "She said she was 'sick of the house' and wanted to 'let it burn.'"

The house was on the market for 1065 days. It started at 2.5 million and was down to 1.45 million before it was torched.
