re: Got an Innocent Explanation (Neighbor-Related)?

Either their summer home or winter home. Your profile doesn't indicate your location though. Neighbors two houses down from me use this home as their second home. They live mainly in the northeast though. Usually another giveaway is a lack of landscaping needing upkeep. My neighbor has a yard and that's it. No other plants to maintain.

Sounds like a future Section 8. Enjoy your new neighbors

Um, not this neighborhood. House looks great and yard is kept mowed.

Define that
Depending on markets it could be expensive for your town but affordable where their primary residence is?

Future relocation coming up. Wanted to buy before interest rates continued up. Husband comes to visit and take pics and plan renovations they will make. Porch light is just an oversight when he forgets to turn it off.
We had a family from Cali move in a few doors down. I think the husband may have been living in corporate housing for several months before permanently relocating and hence buying a home. Nobody was around for several months but he'd check in periodically and I'd see him. Rest of family eventually relocated and now live there normally.
I haven't asked him why he didn't move in as soon as they closed, but perhaps his corporate apartment was closer to work and/or they were going to move most furniture with the family so no sense getting stuff for the house and moving in without them?

Last year a 40-year-old couple bought the most expensive house in the neighborhood, on a hill across the street.
Other than a weekly landscaping crew, no one is ever there except for the husband - who visits once every 3-4 weeks, always after dark, for about 30 minutes each time.
Sometimes he leaves the porch light on, then turns it off a few weeks later.
Also it could be a vacation type of home. There are a couple of those in my neighborhood that are usually only occupied during the weekends.
Can the OT suggest an explanation (other than MYOFB) that doesn't involve corpses, drugs, guns or cash?
They are still stuck in their old house, which hasn't sold yet.

Award for most plausible, suddenly obvious explanation goes to:
Thanks for that.

Does kidnapping qualify?
How about a secret kink?
Maybe they're CIA and monitoring you?

Go over and ask if you could borrow a cup of sugar.

Call the police for a safety check. Tell them an alien craft that looks a lot like a Dodge utility vehicle is visiting every third night and they carry what look like body sized bundles wrapped in blankets into the house. Strange lights flicker across the windows for an hour or so. Then the lights go out and they bring the bundles back out and load them into the back of the panel van.
Tell them a few nights earlier you followed them to the local homeless camp, where they dumped the bundles out on the ground and then the van took off straight up into the sky.
After the craft disappeared, the bundles started moving and some evil looking creature slithered out like a slimy snake. As it crossed over into the woods, it suddenly rose up and took on the form of a human before disappearing into the trees.
I promise you the cops will take this seriously and get to the bottom of whatever is going on. Plus, if it was fleshed out a little by a decent screen play writer, it would make a good multiple segment Amazon Prime movie.
"The House on Davis Hill" Needs a good cop character, a crazy guy who won't stop calling the cops, an NSF investigator, a bad guy from the Airforce Space Agency, and a babe or two. Homeless extras could be obtained cheaply to flesh out the dimly lit nightime segments
I'd watch it. Oh, giving me a mention in the credits would be nice, too.

There's a house near me that has been vacant for 20 years. Landscape crew comes and cuts grass. The house is owned by some Indian (Stop n Go, not Navajo) doctor. He used to live there.

We had something like this in our hood, one morning 15 COP/DEA cars were there raiding a grow house.
Right in the middle of a nice neighborhood with the average house price around 450k.
It was about 4 houses down from mine, I probably walked by it 50 times and had no clue.

His wife doesn’t want to move.
I have a friend who’s in this same situation. They built a house and she’s delayed every chance she gets. From choosing the tile to the shade of stain on the steps. Now she’s custom ordered furniture that’s going to take 8 months to deliver.

Several years ago, when I lived in a different area, there was a 2-story house at the end of the street. No blinds or curtains on the windows so you could tell the house was empty.
The owners had moved the back wall of the garage back several feet so you could fit 6 cars (2 rows of 3) in there. Every week or so, he would show up, back all the cars out and get the one he wanted to drive for the next week. They were all pretty nice cars (nothing extravagant...best one was a corvette).
I guess the house payments were cheaper than secure storage for 6 pretty nice cars.

I sold my house in New Orleans in September of 2021. Not a cheap house over 500k. Purchased via Power of Atty the buyer never saw it.
To date, it's still empty. Someone comes by to check on it monthly but it's empty otherwise.
