Over the last 15 years or so, people have been buying the houses in our neighborhood, and fixing them up. This happened to almost every house on our block, including ours before we bought it two years ago. Someone recently bought the house next to ours (the last crappy house on the block) with the intentions of fixing it up and selling it. About a month ago, this man made a comment to my husband that he is probably going to knock the existing structure down, and rebuild a beautiful big house in its place. That made my husband and I very happy, but we haven't seen him since. The house is vacant, with boards on the windows, a definite eye sore. If and when he starts tearing it down, will he have to inform us? I am happy about having a new nice house next to ours, but of course I'm not happy about living next to a construction site! Can we go to the town and ask if permits were filed? We're having a big party at our house in 2 months, so I want to plan accordingly.
