In Florida there is a huge scam going on where people are claiming the property is abandoned and filing quit claim deeds with the county and claiming they are the owner. I am guessing that is what they are doing here.
That's exactly why I asked the OP if they were in Florida.
This is crazy. I assume that he doesn't own the house - it's probably been foreclosured on, it's empty, and he's pretending that it's his. But, wouldn't it be better to break in a ahead of time and change the locks, rather than tell potential buyers that you have to climb through a window? LOL.

This is a prime example why scams exist and always will.
A person knows it is a scam but the greedy part of him says its a deal he just can't pass up.
How many flashing neon lights proclaiming--- scam-- do people need before they get a clue ?
Barnum Bailey was right---" there is a sucker born every minute "
Of course, the other side of that is how sad it is that if a situation doesn't meet the normal x,y, and z criteria, we automatically assume it is a scam. As a community, we have been burned too many times, and we know the scams are out there, so if something is the slightest bit off, we have no choice but to assume it isn't legit. That is a sad state.
I agree, most people would just the house rekeyed and walk in the front door like normal people.
I said " Why didn't you rekey the house " ? He said " I don't have time for that . I am a busy man.
Make no mistake . I am HUGE on investigating anything especially due to Craigs List/ or the internet in general ... where there is a cesspool of scammers.
The property is in shambles according to him. ( I never went to look at it since I posted here and felt nauseated by what I read here )
So if its cheap , needs serious work , has no key , wants the buyer to climb through a window. ...I wonder how many other ppl are lined up to see this place ....Moi * NOT * , lol...
Post Note : No.. its not in Florida.....but these guys sound busy like they are saturating many cities...
