[quote:Wondering Mind:MV80MjM3Mzk1Xzc3MTA5NzI2XzhBMkJCRkIy] Wow, that was a bad way of listing that property and then trying to milk the buyer of it who had no control over how they listed it for sale. The guy should be able to keep his place he bought and it listed as residential. Or with the mistake they made, they would need to buy it back from him at the going new appraisal for its updated/remodeled price. That is just too big of sellers mistake and too long before trying to reclaim it as other than they listed it for, that from their own mistake at others/buyers expense. He should get to keep what he bought just as it was sold and listed as, residential property. [/quote]
Original Message
SEATTLE — Kroon purchased the property from the City of Seattle in a 2012 auction.
Kroon told KIRO 7 he “thought we had essentially bought a residential property” for $712,000.
The Seattle man then spent thousands of dollars on interior remodeling, and for more than three years, his extended family and friends used the firehouse for holidays, celebrations, charity fundraisers, graduation parties and as an office until a Land Use Notice of Violation arrived in July of 2016.
According to the City of Seattle's violation letter, a "complaint about this property" had been received. A Housing and Zoning Inspector "investigated" and found "violations of the Seattle Land Use Code."
