I swear, occupancy checks get more and more interesting every day. While trying to find a foreclosed home WAY up in the hills of Healdsburg, I came across a gate with 21 locks attached to it. One lock belongs to Pacific Gas & Electric, another belongs to the phone company. I'm assuming all of the others are for the many residents who live on this road.
I parked my car and hiked in, but I never did find the house. I came across one of the residents who accused me of trespassing and refused to open the gate. I guess I can't blame him, for all he knows I could be an ax murderer. But, all is well, we had a long conversation and exchanged phone numbers. I'll call him first before I step foot past this gate again.
I see a lot of exercise in my near future, trying to find this house. The property I'm trying to locate is on 44 acres and I have no idea how many acres this road services. Google Maps are no help, all you can see is a forest.
Getting past this gate so I can list and sell this property is going to be quite an adventure. Something tells me I'll be adding a new tool to my real estate toolbox very soon.
