*It's the COST of repair/ restoration that's actually HAUNTING, not the ghosts.*

I don't think anyone realizes that even if you buy these at really low prices, the property tax costs would kill you.

I just bought a 6bd 4b stone home in the country near the northern border. It was built in 1834 and thankfully has been kept in excellent condition by the people who have owned it. It stayed in the family for over a hundred years. Renovations have taken place and great care has been given. I could only afford it because of its location. The floors could use a sanding and resealing and the gardens are a bit overgrown, but it is in excellent condition. It has a history with the Underground Railroad. Their are names carved in the attic rafters. The tunnel collapsed long ago. Im not sure why this dream was able to come true but I know it is imperative that my gratitude is shown by giving back to the community we've joined and the world in everyway I can.

The Ann Starett mansion is now an Airbnb. It's absolutely gorgeous.

Owning a home like these is strictly for the wealthy. I own a 120 year old wooden house, and the problems are amazingly expensive. The chimney is leaning because the underlying foundation has previous termite damage. $45k. The upstairs floor joists are dry rotted and the floor is sagging, leading to the downstairs room having a sagging ceiling, which has caused the drywall and molding to crack. To fix it is another 28k. The metal roof is leaking above the kitchen, causing water damage to the ceiling rafters and the kitchen ceiling. $8k.
I have the money and I will pay for the repairs, but I can’t find a contractor to do it. They’re all making money building new homes and dealing with the labor shortage . If I actually do get someone out to give me an estimate, it’s outrageous. I guess I’ll keep dealing with the problems until we hit a recession and I can find someone licensed who wants the work.

If I had the money, I would gladly buy any one of these homes and fix them up...alright, maybe only half of them.

My house is about 300 years old. It had been abandoned for 17 years before I bought it cash, fairly cheap. Three stories, in a 700 year old town in not quite rural southern France, 15 rooms. Needs a lot of work but I do live within it's thick stone walls.

One of my aunts once owned a house that was built in 1777. It was super haunted but yet still lived in it for decades.

[deborahsayre]

It’s a shame that houses are abandoned when there are so many people without a place to live.

[preciouusss]

I would totally live in one of the haunted mansions. They are beautiful. Even if I couldn't live in those mansions if I were a millionaire I would buy the haunted mansions and use them as a Halloween attraction or charge ghost hunters for investigating those places 😎

If I lived in the US and had enough money I would 100% buy the Ann Starett House in a heart beat! It has fully stolen my heart ❤️

The city owned an old home across the street from a property my sister owned. We learned they were going to tear it down and just sell the lot. So she looked into just moving it across the street. She got a bid and moving a house a few hundred feet was $20k. I wasn’t really too shocked it peaked my curiosity of what such services cost. I talked to the contractor and he explained that the cost goes up fast when you start having to make arrangements with municipalities to move power lines for a day etc. It’s an art of the path of least resistance and not something any chump could take on. I’m glad I got to talk to someone who did it I was fascinated by it.

Don't be afraid of ghosts ... be afraid of people who are still alive. THEY are the ones to watch out for.

[davidfollett]

I actually remember my dad showing me that last one a few years ago. If I'm perfectly honest, the taxidermy could easily be stored away and the decor isn't really that bad. Though, that depends on who you ask, but I don't think it's terrible. If I could afford it, I'd live there since the main issue seems to be the interior design and I personally don't really care about that sort of thing.

[DNGRKTY]

I have been in love with the Starrett house every since I first saw it in a video years ago. The history, the architecture... all of it! I ever win the lottery, she will be my first purchase, and I will honor the ghosts of her first family. ❤

[dapotato]

I don’t care how broken or haunted that house in the thumbnail is, GIVE IT TO ME

[Bobrogers]

While haunting is given as the primary reason some of these places are unsellable, I suspect that it's more likely that the price is too high for what you get. Most of them will require costly renovation/restoration in addition to the sales price.

This one of your best videos yet! In spite of the ghosts, the interiors are to drool over. I've been lucky enough to spend summers with two relatives who've had the houses since they were built (1900 and 1925, respectively) and all those times were blissful, learning the eccentricities of old house design and exploring the treasures in the basements, attics, bookcases and storage cupboards. Where else could you find kits for patching kidskin (an early kind of whitewall) tires or 1910 era extracts for making birch beer? And spices in their original 1930s packaging stored in a zinc-lined icebox converted to a cupboard? And then there's a set of pewter charms to be baked into a cake. Whatever was in your slice told your fortune ... provided it didn't chip a tooth or lodge in your windpipe.

For the SK Mansion, I've seen the episode of Ghost Adventures where they investigated the mansion, and interviewed the owners, who you mentioned in the video, and the hauntings are attributed to all the deaths that occurred inside it, including a WW2 veteran who supposedly died from spontaneous combustion, and the fact there was a tunnel in the basement that connected to SK's factory across the street. The tunnel had closed off entrances on both sides and has since collapsed. And because it's collapsed, it may never be known what occurred in that tunnel. Who knows, there could be bodies buried under it. And no one can explain the little boy that is the most seen ghost in the house is. It's not a member of the Pierce family, that they know for sure. But all the death and illegal activity that took place inside the mansion, yeah, no one would want that house. But because it's historic, not just because of the ghosts, it can't be torn down, unless it poses a potential safety hazard. So it could sit abandoned for many more years, and yet, it will always be taken care of to appease the spirits that still call it home.
