Smell in the air
BP, I am on the verge of my first purchase and have an important question. I'll get right to it.
When the wind blows, it picks up the smell from a waste management location about 3-4 miles away. How big of an issue is this?
The house is good in all other facets. Needs work but will get a great price (well below asking price and most recent appraised value) and in the market I have been looking for for months. It's a duplex that if I get this at the right price could be great to hold down the road.
What are your thoughts? Perhaps this is the reason it's been on the market over 250 days?
FYI: the smell is strong enough (when the wind blows) that you will pick up the scent even if you're not paying attention
