A community for connoisseurs to take in bewildering houses, suburban hellscapes, coke mansions, and meth chateaus in all their glory.

Include the Zillow/Redfin/whatever link if possible so we can really take in that wine aunt staging.

ETA: It has been brought to my attention that San Jose is not, in fact, a neighborhood in LA. Sorry, I'm from Iowa.

The listing says San Jose. So, not LA.

But I thought Meth Labs were a southern tradition /s

San Jose is quite a drive from LA

Everywhere in California is LA to anyone outside of California

how I see it, outsiders see California in two different locations, LA and San Francisco(Bay Area), which the latter is bundled with.

Yeah but you could pretty much fit all of Portugal in the distance between them

Here I was thinking California was IN L.A.

LA is also quite a drive from LA

Too bad it's inactive. They could have gotten another $125k.

Inactive Meth Lab means bulldoze the current structure and build a similar one where this one stood. That house is ruined inside and out.

I like the idea that they found out it was a meth lab and then increased the price. “Purchase this combination home and small business! Great investment opportunity for future owner/operator!”

I wonder if there's some government-backed amelioration they're teasing.

As an identified dangerous site, maybe you can get subsidies to tear it down in the name of "removing contamination", making it net cheaper than any other similar shack if your endgame is teardown-and-rebuild.

Free meth making tools? pog-fish

Was this in commercial or residential real estate?

Landlord: well I won't be living there, sold

The home is a money pit. The meth lab is just a fixer-upper

That looks exactly like the house Jessie Pinkman crawled out the second story window of and fell off the roof.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 years ago

so a selling point like game room or are the interior walls missing?

San Jose is the most expensive city to live in the USA . even more than Manhattan or San Francisco

this is honestly a cheap inactive meth lab to buy in San Jose most go for at least double that price
