@@VannBergHVAC FALSE. I did commercial and residential demolition for over 30 years. On older concrete buildings some are much stronger than today. As far as houses go an old house is easier to take down. Old houses don't have the big open spaces that new homes have. Typically the have more interior walls that can help stabilize it as you take it down. I did dozens of problem properties in Minneapolis over the years. Some 3 story houses that were literally 4 feet from the neighbors. A new construction building would be much slower to do it without risking neighboring property.

Your comment represents soo much more than this subject. It represents exactly the problem within our county. People speak out of turn, uneducated, creating a base of subservient sleep walkers. The hallmark of a healthy mind is the unwitting willingness to know the truth. Thankyou!

Tearing down such a nice house is disgustingly wasteful, I'm sure that house took a long time to build and was likely very solid.

This is pitiful. I can understand if the house burned and had to be torn down, but this house looks perfect. So very sad to watch this.

Same. So hard to watch

Some houses in close in upper middle class areas are bought and torn down to build a larger newer house. I was at a demolition sale of a 675.000 house that there was nothing wrong with, they just liked the upper class close in area and wanted a 1.2 million dollar house. What was really sad was on the next block over a house sold for 1 million totally remodeled with everything new inside and it was bulldozed down new fixtures and all. The new owners were ridiculed for not having a demolition sale, and it was quite a waste, but they said they were on a tight schedule and didn't have time to deal with a sale, one thing for sure they may not have had any time but they sure had plenty of money.

My uncle does a lot of these demos with the company he’s with, the electrical panel in my house is out of one of those houses, it still has a scratch in the cover from the excavator bucket tooth lol. Contrary to popular belief a lot of what is worth saving gets saved, but that isn’t crappy old windows and doors that aren’t thermal and whatever else crap people think should have been saved from an old likely worn out inside house that probably needed just as much work to make it as good a house as to just build a new one up to modern code

I like the neighbors holding up work so they can get some spare parts for themselves, Im guessing those were the owners out front doing the shoveling and broom. I was waiting to see the Kitchen Sink come swinging out on that chain.

So crazy, perfectly good house.

why are they pulling stuff out while its getting knocked down vs doing all that prior on a different day ? no safety regulations

U can see this house had a fire up by the rafters. It's torched black. That's why it's being torn down

With the price of land today, that house is probably on a large lot and a builder going to put two houses up. Surprised to see how easily the house breaks apart. Sad.

So much to be reclaimed there. Very strange to wreck it all

Foreclosure on what?

The oner of this house loved it, he had it built in the 80’s. His ex wife got the house in the devorce. She knew how mutch he wanted the house, so out of spite, here we are, revenge is best served cold. 😂 😂

What a shame! Looks like a good house.
