Quick Survey: Would you buy a house next to a cemetery?

[buffalobo]

Would depend on how good a deal it is.

It would help if it were outside of city limits on an elk migration path.

Would depend on how good a deal it is.

60k less than similar houses nearby. because the basement is not finished and I would give the current owner some flexibility with the closing dates.

Did I mention that it comes with a big a$$ gun safe in the basement?

So far the wife is no sure though...

Check the property lines/easements. Maybe it seems full, but hasn't yet expanded. Your house could be in that path, or the center eventually.

Would I? Sure. But you're asking a firearm enthusiast forum. Families and women don't always feel the same and they play a big role in the home buying process so resale would scare me.

[rondog]

Wouldn't bother me a DAMN bit! I'd actually prefer it, I like privacy. But my main concern would be the house and property itself, condition, size of the garage, any outbuildings, room for expansion/building a shop, etc. But I have no concern about a buncha stiffs. You know the lawn will always look nice there!

Nah

The ONLY issue i see besides traffic is the thrill seekers who think they can walk through there after dark. Next thing you know they want to see what that house the cemetery surrounds has in it.

I bought a place next to a half way house.

Living next to a cemetery would be a frikin pleasure.

But you get better talent from the 1/2 way house.
