Foreclosure on the GolfCourse in Mesquite NV - and a game of Hide and Seek

I was showing a foreclosure property in Mesquite today - right on the Palmer Golf Course in the Ironwood subdivision.  The home has a gorgeous southern view of the mountains over the course.  As I was taking a few pictures for my huge collection, I noticed some small movements as I took some shots.  I thought it was birds or ducks.  When I stepped back into the home from the back patio, I glanced back through the window. 

Four little kids were running around - playing hide and seek.  A hilly golf course in Mesquite is a great place to play - little mountains, huge rocks, bushes and trees - and even sandboxes.  I was watching them through the window and they were having a really good time.  The little kid with the blue shoes was fast ... kept diving over the little hills.

I was laughing at them, thinking what a good time they were having.  Then I thought, 'Wait a minute!  There are golfers out there!'  That is so dangerous.  The house that I was showing had some serious golfball hits on the back of it coming from right behind where the kids were playing.

I stepped outside to yell at the kids to get out of there and go home - they saw me and ran away.  Busted!

What a beautiful course - no wonder those kids couldn't resist running around out there!

Golf course homes are beautiful....but you have to watch for those balls, and if you like a more private backyard, you might not like the "traffic" coming by on the course. But it could also be very entertaining.

If you are a golfer, of course, case closed!

Thomas, I tell my clients who want to buy on a golfcourse so that they can watch the golfers:

Just remember that they are watching you right back.
