For less than many pay for a years rent you could be a proud owner of one of these former dream homes.

That Green one is here in my city. I'm trying to get the house next door to me right now, and I will get it for about that if/when I do.

It's been vacant since my 90 year old neighbor died and her daughter couldn't pay the back taxes. The city took it over. Back taxes were under $5k

Please define "Dream Home".

Most of those listings are along the lines of "$8000, plus take over the $100,000 mortgage". So the article is mostly bullshit.

"Former" dream homes. At one point these homes were the proud property of hard working families.

Houses were dirt cheap here at one point. Nice two bedroom condos going for $50k...
