They went out of business and now the place is abandoned in the middle of town...the fence was knocked over for some reason ( i noticed the other day but paid no mind to it)
Well today I was driving by again and decided to check it out.. and my my at what I found. I imagine its 50$ worth of metal or more. However...I could not take it..something did not feel right..the place has been abandoned for years...but it did not feel right still..
So I plan on calling around to see who owns the building and if I may offer services of cleaning up the area for free from trash so that potential buyers wont be hassled with it and the area will be clean. When you are fighting to make a living to survive you cannot help but want to just rip everything I saw from the shelves and walls and scrap it all thinking its abandoned gold but...I think I should do this the right way cause it will pay off.
Question is...is this a good way to attract said owners attention? I think its a Realtor company but am not sure.
That is more than $50 worth, unless the price of scrap there is extremely low.
