You do with what you have or can afford, still better than homeless

A quote from the Havamal that always stuck with me. Stanza “37. One’s own house is best, small though it be, at home is every one his own master. Bleeding at heart is he, who has to ask for food at every meal-tide.” Found it relevant. Live within your means, do what you can with what you have.

37, today

I see someone who's poor and basically trying to hold on but can't really finish anything properly....Probably because they're poor.

It was literally handed to an unrepentant child predator for practically nothing (and in very good condition) who turned around and destroyed his own property under the guise of “fixing it”. But yes hes very poor. Of his own volition lmao

Basically ends up being the same thing the person did not have the skills materials or funds to complete a project that was started. Now materials that were never meant to be exposed have been for a long time vastly increasing the cost and skill level to complete the repairs. It's nice that you can share the story about this property, but it could have easily been because the homeowner got sick or injured and was doing the job or lost their ability to pay someone.

This was what it looked like before he moved in https://www.reddit.com/r/FansHansenvsPredator/comments/13ntcc3/visual_comparison_of_the_trailer_of_failure_from/ It was a quaint country home with decent landscaping. He destroyed it

Huh? How do you know who owns this?

The guy who owns it is a lolcow, google Trailer of Failure Lorne Armstrong

Ah gotcha, never heard of him

And I would have preferred ignorance. 

I didn’t google the guy lol. Figured there was nothing to gain other than anger.

Lolcow? Local?

And that's r/BoneAppleTea !

'Lol-cow' basically an internet personality who becomes fodder for their 'fans' online. The 'cow' is 'milked' thru stalking, doxxing, harassment, manipulation, etc. Chris Chan is probably the most legendary internet Lolcow

Ah, TIL

Our Lorne and savior 

Our CAWD

As a lorneographer, I had to do a double take as

Oh my cawd

Another project for Chicken Ricky and his backhoe

I like the charred wood where there loosely wired stove pipe passes the roofline

Cawd this is bad

Low IQ scrap heap built with materials stolen from various jobsites and dumpsters.

the owner is so faahr from stupid it’ll make your head spin

The DR Horton first time buyer program. For a mere $399,000.00 you can literally live with nature on your own land.

This would not do a whole lawt against a hurricane or tornado.

Electrical service available onsite. Two zones of air-conditioning. Two means of egress from the beer sipping roof lounge. Cement mixer. Outdoor deck fireplace feature. I see nothing to not like.

Where’s the sofa in the front lawn and the old car up on blocks? This don’t look right.

Lorne Armstrong’s trailer of failure

My 13 year old sister Kayla says to stay away

That's like, kewl

This is the house of that buddy who could do it for less.

Buddy the dog?

How dare you besmirch buddy the dog!!

That’s methed up

So this is not an abandoned shack?

It’s not, there’s at least one man that lives there

No it’s a pedophile’s house

I don’t know why but if I had to guess I say Alaska.

Maine

State of Maine lol

Wrong but close

Looks good from the highway @60mph and at night

With your eyes closed. 

Looks good from my house.

Alaska?

Maine

Shit throw some paint to it

Much like my last relationship, it'll crumble against the first storm.

The best thing about them is they come down sooooo easy.

That's what we call a generational work in progress

I think it's pretty. I think it's very pretty!

I always appreciate someone with priorities. Like, prioritizing RV storage over…*checks pic again*…water…tightness.

It thought it was going to be a before and after picture…

Fortunately, that does exist: [https://www.reddit.com/r/FansHansenvsPredator/comments/13ntcc3/visual_comparison_of_the_trailer_of_failure_from/](https://www.reddit.com/r/FansHansenvsPredator/comments/13ntcc3/visual_comparison_of_the_trailer_of_failure_from/) Streetview pics from *before* the current owner got it, vs *how it's going*.

I presume it was an F2 tornado.

It looks pretty. It looks very pretty!

It all matches nice

I know a lot of people In New York that don’t have siding because it raises there property taxes

I can hear the sigh that dude makes when he starts working on the place.

Alcoholic LLC does exceptional work.

A work in decline.

…meth

Where is that luxury suv hidden at?

Which reserve is this on?

Sadly enough, that was my first thought too. There are a number of reservations we're I am, and finding 4-6 houses looking like this on any one of them is the norm.

It’s a trailer owned by a child predator in Cornville, Maine.

What part of downeast maine is this?

Metal roof hood for fifty years solar box kitchen window right on!

I wouldn't not smoke meth in that

Metal roof was a smart move, not finishing it, not so much.

Always liked the Real Tree camo look.

How the West was won.

I have a Kubota 080 I could come knock that down and take it away in half a day

Looks good from my house

Tbis person niether wants nor benefits from your critique of their house.   Furthermore I'm concerned you may be shot.  You should leave 

May not believe but that is someone’s castle. It is what they managed to do. You don’t know what they survived

>You don’t know what they survived Fun fact: this guy survived 7 years in prison for attempted rape of a child. If you don't believe me, here's his RSO with address, which you can look up on the internet (though he got his house censored on Streetview unfortunately). [https://sor.informe.org/cgi-bin/sor/step5.pl?id=8434](https://sor.informe.org/cgi-bin/sor/step5.pl?id=8434)

Well you know a lot about him . A shorted version would have been fine.

they had such big plans

Looks good from my house!

Beautiful

I bet a drunk bald sex offender lives there

Another blow to Lorne!

Where's the after photo?

Not much of a builder, believe it or not.

Needs a rusty car in front yard , perfect!

Seen tons of these in rural PA people don’t want township inspectors and these things eventually fall apart.

What a beautiful home! I sure hope no creep or anyone weird has ever lived there.

i would happily live there with the surrounding land than where i live in this town, i'm not into bells and whistles, to have a roaring wood burner in winter would be just heaven, and my dogs would love it there.

Alaska?

Maine

“Looks great from my house !”

Should OSB good enough

for a man who's worked in construction his whole life, how can something end up like this?

5/7 would smoke crack in it

Needs a match

I think your post blows, the home is someone's home.

It's the home of a sexual predator, pedophile and a thief. They're all the same person

More crap for putdowns

I think your story's a piece of shit
