When my grandparents passed back in 2013 my father and his 10 siblings were selling off one of their properties as none of them wanted it. It was valued at 46k but they were offering it to anyone else in the family or friends for 40k. Nobody wanted it but me, as I had very fond memories of it. It was in a remote, wooded area where there wasn’t much work around but would have been great for me as I could have worked remotely on computer in my field of work.

The house was built by my uncle and was in great condition and included the house, the property (about 3 acres), fully furnished with all furniture, tools in shed, about 2 minute drive from a lake, with boat slip and a large pontoon boat. They refused to work with me though as I was in my early twenties and didn’t have a cash and would have to take out a loan so they decided to post listing and sold it all to a random person for 52k. The house alone is now valued at 292k.

When my grandparents passed they also went through their main house and emptied two dumpsters worth of things keeping everything of value and the vehicles before their bodies were cold and didn’t let the grandchildren claim any mementos. I ended up with an expired fire extinguisher from their stairwell to remember them by.
