That would be because no local government that I know of will reduce a properties values when counting taxes. Ergo this property probably has a tax value that makes people vomit when they see it.

Is the house still up for sale?

"The home on Prospect Street in Flint needs a new roof and carpeting and the plumbing has been ripped out, said Megie, a broker with Realty Executive Main Street LLC in Lapeer, Michigan, who sells Fannie Mae-owned homes. The house was originally listed for sale in April, he said. "

Gee a city named after my other nick

And a comment about me having it right as Flint to

And no plumbing, needing carpets, needing a roof... a corner property, and improperly assessed value? Yeah I would not touch that unless the value dropped in the city books, then I would snap it up, smash the existing house and build an apartment building

taxes sux 

for those of you not in the know, Michigan's economy has been destroyed by the liberal economics of our Current governor, Grandholm, and people are fleeing the state to find jobs elsewhere. hard to feel sorry for the people when they re-elected her after she destroyed it. other fun things going on in the state is the liberal Major of Detroit is finally looking to be going to prison for obstructing justice and lieing under oath after there has been many scandals that there hasnt been enough evidence to convict him for; the FBI is investigating multiple cases in Detroit where money is missing, and the Detroit City council is trying to throw the Mayor out of office. the only jobs in Michigan are at restaurants and at hospitals to take care of the baby boomer's. universities state wide are extremely stretched financially and degrading in quality because of a significant cut in state government funding. attempts to pass bills to increase public school funding has been shot down on both state and local lvls while environmental ones, costing the state much more pass.

And when Michigan is dead and gone the experiment will be seen as a ruinous ideal and perhaps they will become Republicans having realized their own lies.

Well it is certainly a state on life support with a team of physicians trying desperately hard to keep it alive!
