My mom and I email each other often, and she usually sends me all sorts of humorous stuff about real estate, home inspections, and pets. Some of it is off the wall and can't be republished at a family site like ActiveRain.
Today I got an email about the skeleton of a man found inside a chimney of a home up in San Bernardino County where she lives. The home had been vacant for three years after the previous owner died (probably probate problems at a minimum), and the skeleton was found during renovations by the new owner. Investigators say there were no signs of foul play and that the man has been dead for about two years. They have no idea who he is.
Just another reason to get a thorough home inspection.

Hi Jim:

Guess a home inspector never knows what they will discover. That is really alarming. I've heard of burglars going down a chimney and getting caught and then suing the owner. Who ever said that the chimney was a property gateway to enter the home?
