    there's something strange going on about the neighbor's next door...

    They' nice people.

    buuut they claim to have bought the house last year (from the "smith's)

    but township records (Accessible to the public online) still list the"Smith's" as the owners

    and the Smith's crap is still in the backyard (old car)

    according to listings I've seen online, the house is still on the market and active (listing was updated a few weeks ago)

    They are renting and are embarrassed for whatever reason. Probably because there aren't many renters in the upper middle class suburban environment your parents live in.

    Edit: Never mind the last part, I thought it was your parent's neighbors.

    maybe, lol

    and I was talking to the guy "Rick" while working outside, and he said they don't have a computer OR internet access, and he once in while goes to his parents place to use the internet

    now how many homeowners in the 25-35 age range don't have internet access?

    I guess my only concern is if they're squatters or something

    It could be a rent-to-own scenario.

    I guess, but would the "smith's" still be actively be trying to get rid of the place?

    they've lowered the asking price down by like 150K over the last 3 years so I'd think they're kinda desperate to get rid of it

    The neighbor behind me decided to spot kill all of the weeds in his yard with Round Up. His yard now looks like a dalmatian’s back. I saw Chemlawn spraying the yard a few weeks ago. Why he didn’t call them back is beyond me. The Palestinian guy on the corner (next to the house I just mentioned) owns his own house, the house I just mentioned next door to his and another one kitty corner from his, across the street, all from foreclosures. The family he moved into the house across the street felt it would be a good idea to put PLASTIC palm trees in their front yard. WTF?

    Okay so I have this senile old broad who lives next to us. She seriously shouldn't be living alone (Like half of the people in my condos). One day I'm coming back from the gym in my Camaro. I walk up to my house and she storms out yelling at me saying: "Why is it so loud, why is it so ARGAGHARAGAGH screaming trying to mouth my exhaust." I just act too shocked for words and walk in.

    She proceeds to spend the next year hating us, never saying a word, not even to my younger sister. One day my mom actually talks to her and finds out that in her senile stupor, she envisioned my dad giving her some apples as as gift one day (I know, wtf?) and they were ROTTEN! THIS IS WHY SHE HATED US. My mom tried to tell her it never happened but I still don't fully believe she is convinced...what a fool.
