I will preface this with this warning because I know in advance this will be a hot take
I think she's being unreasonable. No if ands or buts, I agree with the company that is suing her, this does not mean that I agree that they should have built the house in the first place; because it was not their property. However, they have tried multiple times to reach a resolution with her that would help both sides, she has turned down every offer so far stating she didn't want the house there in the first place.
This is a reasonable response, however let's go over what she's turned down so far:
she has turned down an offer of another plot of land, which was offered free of charge and still in the same area that her other house was which she has turned down because the coordinates are against her zodiac signs.
They have offered to sell her the house at a discounted value, what she is also turned down not because she doesn't think the house shows value, but because “It would set a dangerous precedent if you could go onto someone else’s land, build anything you want, and then sue that individual for the value of it"
This would be 100% understandable if it weren't for the fact that it is very clear that this was not their intention and also not what they are doing, they are suing the discounted value of it because they know they fucked up.
I agree with the company accusation, she is trying to take advantage of what was a mistake, if she truly felt the way that she feels she would bulldoze the lot or be trying to work with the company to have them pay for bulldozed costs, neither of which have been publically stated(not that the company would agree with bulldozing it). She wants to take advantage of this mistake and get a free 500,000 house out of it. I will be interested how this plays out in court, I'm not a lawyer but I hard disagree with this case being an open shut case like the practicing attorney video posted in another comment.
edit: to save people asking me for the eighth time the same question, yes I understand she has no obligation to propose a solution, but the fact that she has not done so also indicates towards the intent.
Nope she has every right. Trying to make things right doesn't make things right, don't fuck up and if you do especially as a company pay the fuck up.
I also dislike that her not wanting a property against her zodiac sign is supposed to suggest craziness. If someone said they didn't want a house near a cemetery or pork factory for religious reasons we don't question it, if anything we understand that. Let her have that space too all religions are goofy as fuck.
The zodiac sign thing sounds like an attempt at making her sound crazy. The company should have done better due diligence on such an important thing.
Haaaaa. It is crazy.
Now she has the right to say no for absolutely no reason and I support that but saying no based on astrology is pretty fucking crazy.
why
It doesn't matter why she wants what she wants. It only really matters what she wants.
You're completely right, I just wish I didn't know the reason because I can't respect it
Literally all religions though and you're gonna respect some? Who is the real dummy?
And if you shoot back saying you believe in nothing you hold no proof and could be just as wrong as every religion. So why act so arrogant and be so judgemental it is literally actually stupid
'Literally actually'
Thanks for that.
Exactly come pick at grammar that's all you can do baby
I'm not sure if you're saying that I'm suggesting that it's crazy or if you're just stating it so I'm responding, I'm not saying that it's crazy one way or the other I'm just stating what she gave as the reason for it
I think we can both agree that the valid outcome of this will be that the property will be bulldozed but the fact that she hasn't suggested is herself suggest that she might want the house there she just doesn't want to pay for it.
She has no obligation to suggest anything here. And the valid outcome is that they rebulldoze (since they did that when building) de-landscape and then relocate and replant any and all plants. She already has the house, it is crazy to me you can have a take so hot and yet so very wrong.
How do you know she hasn't said that is what she wants? For all we know, the company doesn't want to do that because it will cost them more money.
