We live in a nice area, home values are $350k-$400. It’s called “Midtown.” It’s a quiet suburban/city street with a lot of young families and a few retired couples. I was pretty taken aback to realize that our “strange” neighbors who always had people over aren’t just an odd retired couple, but that it’s a religious halfway house.
A quick search of their website says they provide temporary transitional housing for people with mental disabilities, traumatic brain injuries and recovering addicts. The home is owned by a single female who I assume rents it out to this organization as the forwarding address on the deed is in another city.
I’m glad that this organization exists but I’m a little uneasy to be living across from a rotating door of strangers. I also wonder— am I ever going to be able to sell my house?
We have spent $10k on updates already and we’re about to drop another $20 to redo the bathrooms. We were planning on staying here for at least five more years, but now I’m not so sure. What would you do? What’s your experience with houses like this? It’s not exactly broadcast publicly but all I had to do was Google the address and it came up.
