This guy had the option between taking 450,000 in cash or this house.... and he picked the house....

Yup, here's a link to the details -http://www.businesswire.com/news/ho...ollar-Healthy-Home-Sweepstakes-Doctors-Lennar
These guys won a 1M+ house and can't afford to pay the property taxes? Wonder how the income tax hit is structured on a sweepstakes like this.

Even if he sells it for only a million he should make more money than just taking the cash (would have still owed income tax on the cash).
He should get more than a million I would think and maybe he got to live in it or rent it out.

aquabliss said:I've read this guys Nextdoor posts, he seems like a nice guy but I think him dodging his property taxes is just downright irresponsible. If you can't afford the home you've won, take out a HELOC or cash-out refi, use the $ to pay the income tax on the win, landscape, pay your property tax, and pay your monthly loan payment, then sell when you can and keep the remainder.
He's in a bad spot and he's asking too much for the home as is. This is going to be another Pavilion Park comp killer when all is said and done. He needs to reduce the price to $1.19M and be done with it. I guess this delinquent prop tax all gets sorted out in escrow but it still probably has to be disclosed and is going to send up red flags for potential buyers.

Someone should email the HOA a picture of the backyard...I'm sure they'd have a bone to pick with the owner that it's not done at this point. haha
