I think the neighbors are upset because he is black and all the neighbors are white.

[Mr KLC]

I guarantee you that they won't let this happen with the next foreclosed on house.

[TR88]

"get the money and buy the house" bitch gtfo, fuk the neighbors hahahah very smart move this guy made

[InTheDrink]

I think the neighbors are upset because he is black and all the neighbors are white.

That bltch is jealous that guy was smarter than the rest of the neighborhood.

[mtneer1212]

Uh oh...... black man moving in. Hide the kids. Hahahaha. I do not believe that this man will be staying there -- no one fails to file a lawsuit over a 300K+ property. I agree with above.... this is a racial issue.

[BeatTheJerk]

He didn't buy the house for 16 dollars. He is staying there for that amount until the bank kicks him out and they sell it. He does not own this house. He filed an affidavit to live there temporarily through the courts ,it was an abandoned house.

[Mr KLC]

I wonder how he got a key to the place.

[BeatTheJerk]

In other words for you numbheads. He is in possession of the house not ownership. The article is very misleading.

[face]

it's a good idea i will try it.

[onlooker]

"He's just squatting there."

[starfire]

U ask me...
He's pretty smart...

[stevek173]

Haha smart guy. stay the 3 years get that title and sell it for $250k then it's all the chitlins watermelon and fried chicken you can eat homie

[itchypickle]

He'll be out by Christmas

[BeatTheJerk]

.....

[Ra77er]

Business as usual

[Bluehorseshoe]

He'll be out by Christmas

Which means 5 months rent free.

[Extra Innings]

good for him

[pavyracer]

I'd bet you he didn't get a welcome basket and a bottle of wine from his neighbors when he moved in.

[donkdown]

so he cant get running water for 3 years??

[in2thethickofit]

Pretty sweet deal....good for him

[Cuse4tw]

literally thought the same thing paver

[Call82]

Its an epic move though, will be interesting to see how lonf he can last in there

[SportsMushroom]

its not racial, the neighbors are just angry that they have to pay the bank every month for their mortgage while this guy was smart enough to get a house for free, its all about jealousy

[DiggityDaggityDo]

Sharp guy.

Racist neighbors are mad because this black man was smarter than them. Gotta love Texas.

[Tech N9ne]

At least give the man a gift basket

[doylfish]

this happens a ton in florida too

[Scorpion]

Great deal

**** his neighbors

[nosniboR11]

no its not racist, but liberal dumb ass idiots like pavy "chipmunk" always want to make it racial

[Doug]

so he cant get running water for 3 years??

seems to me for this to work you'd need to get hooked up with the utilities, just to make it liveable. I hope he gets the home.

[excel]

I swear when they knocked on the door I was waiting for a white nerdy guy to answer. Smart move nonetheless.

[itchypickle]

Which means 5 months rent free.

But considering he has no electricity or running water - means no A/C in the Texas heat as well as nowhere to flush the toilet or shower............nevermind it's the same as what he's probably use to anyway. FREE fertilizer for the neighbors plants I guess!

[Ace_of_Spades]

The black man got a break.

[MichaelWaters]

they will overturn that law. i bet sooner than later no reason for the producers at the network sending out this idea unless it was about to be overturned

[JMobile]

Opie, why didn't you think of this idea in the first place? Black guy just showed you Whats up!
