Don't call people out on post count and then defend yourself like a little girl (maybe teenager on AOL is more appropriate) in this thread. Who cares what Ryanwhatever says? It's obvious he doesn't have any real world experience...why bother with someone like that? Drop the issue, respond to reasonable posts. I can't even fathom how mature you must be to keep bickering with Ryanwhatever. Nothing like a little feud on the internet to spice up my life!

And the property itself wasn't worth 20k, but how much is your "privacy" ( :roll: ) worth?

Summary of this thread: wah my current living situation is being messed up by a developer. since i'm really angry i'm going to attack everyone who says, 'you should've bought the property,' because i know they're right. oh and being an asshole on the internet makes me feel better.

If you think I'm angry then you're high. I'm amused.

Yes, please. My evil plan would then be complete. :p

My brother and I went out after dark that night and moved the stakes about 10 feet further away from our house but they figured it out and moved them back the next morning. When we bought our current house I made sure that they could not do something similar to the property around us.

LOL...that would have been hilarious if that actually worked.

Other kings said I was daft to build a castle on a swamp, but I built it all the same, just to show 'em. It sank into the swamp. So, I built a second one. That sank into the swamp. So, I built a third one. That burned down, fell over, then sank into the swamp, but the fourth one... stayed up! And that's what you're gonna get, lad: the strongest castle in these islands.

But Mill doesn't want any of that! :D

Well, I am pretty unhappy as is my neighbor at the end of our dead end. Right now, I am an only bordered by a house one side. Directly across the street is an empty lot, and the house behind me is buffered by my yard and privacy fence.

On the left of my house was a heavily wooded lot that was very steep and almost marshy at the bottom. This thing is level for about 10 feet and then just DROPS. My driveway borders it on the side, and if you step over the curb on my driveway, you have a nice 15-20 foot drop to meet you. I have no idea how they are going to build there. Last I was told, the lot would not perk, and the developer tried to sell it to me for 20k, and did the same with my other neighbor. Neither one of us wanted it because it was a very small lot with lots of trees, and it truly didn't seem it could be developed.

Fast forward to today. A developer comes out here and just CLEAR CUTS the entire lot. Not a tree left on it. WTF? He claims the basement is going in this week, and that the house will be going up shortly thereafter. Due to the angle and and sheer drop, I'd imagine they will have to bring in a TON of dirt, and that they are going to have to build the house UP rather than over -- so I imagine it will be very tall. Plus, the lot is irregular in shape, so they will not have much of a front yard or backyard. Just a small sideyard. I have no idea where a driveway would even go unless they are going to really fill in the lot and build it to circle around back.

Ugh. Sorry for the long post, but it makes me sad. My beautiful view is gone, and the house will be right next to my bedroom. I can look forward to drills and hammers at 6AM for the next 6 months, and I guess I will lose the ability to prance around naked with the blinds half open as well.

Cliffs:
Piss poor lot is next to my house, and I have a lot of privacy because of it and my neighborhood structure.

Developer found some sucker to buy the piss poor lot.

Tall house will be built and obstruct my view and take way my privacy.

Cut down all the damn trees.

Mill and his neighbor are sad.

BTW, yes, before anyone says it I COULD have bought the lot. But, it was never worth 20k, and it still isn't. I figure he sold it for 10k or so, because you'd have to be high on crack to pay 20k for it. Of course, he'd have never sold it to me for that price, because once he found some sucker at 10k, he can build a house and make a profit AND sell the lot.

Last thing -- they claim they are going to develop any even SMALLER and crappier lot directly across from me. I guess I better move.

Sorry to hear dude =(. Sorta the same thing happened to me several years ago, youll eventually get used to the construction noises and filter it out.

Man, I thought you were in college!? You should have said: "GAVE" him credit for. Now I know why your parents won't let you help out in the family business. Your knuckles scrape the ground when you walk. Mal parido.

Some people do not understand tenses, and RyanSengara needs to be added to that list.
