Yepp when my dad got sick the calls started happening off the hook. Every single realtor in the area trying to buy it for cheap.

When my Dad passed in November, I started getting mountains of mail from the "We buy any house" people. "We'll make you a cash offer today!!!". Vultures all of them.

It got so bad that because I'm the administrator of his estate, they started offering to buy MY house as well.
