My brother lives in small town mid west USA. The house next door to him was fairly run down and came up for sale. It sold for $7000, which was a decent price. He wanted to buy it and flatten it to extend his own yard/garden but it would of cost far too much to do that.
Someone else bought it, threw $20,000 at it and sold it on for $70,000.
The cost of demolition is prohibitive.
