Despite Tragic Past, Property Becomes a Successful Local Business
Although this property was the subject of municipal health and safety code enforcement efforts, the owner was uncooperative with officials and failed to remedy the violations of local and state laws.
Years passed and the house languished in a dilapidated state until it was sadly engulfed by an electrical fire.
Unfortunately, a friend of the owner was living in the attic at the time and tragically suffocated in the fire.

We sold the empty lot to a buyer who constructed a warehouse in its place for his commercial and residential painting company. The local business employs seventeen people and provides a valuable service to the community.
Images of the nuisance property, then empty lot following demolition, contrast sharply with the business that now occupies the space.
