Excerpt

Many states have laws that require a home’s seller to disclose the nature of any paranormal activity that has occurred in a home and in most cases it can affect the price the seller can fetch. On the other
hand, there are certain folks that are trying to market their home’s
paranormal activity as a plus. Even more interesting is the number of
people that are specifically looking for ‘haunted homes’ for sale. It
may sound surprising, but it’s true.

Comment by BK on December 31, 2010 at 2:21pm: I would like to combine paranormal investigation with my Auctioneer's License, and sell haunted properties at auction...or by negotiation prior to auction, if a good offer came along. My real estate license is expired, but I could reactivate it, and go the brokerage route too. I think the market has changed, and bona fide paranormal activity increases the potential value, rather than depreciating it. I've also thought about having auctions of haunted items...many old items come with a ghost attached, even if only for occasional visits.

Comment by Mo on February 28, 2011 at 3:21pm: That's interesting. i've wondered about that since we'd like to sell our house. I have no idea if the spirits are attached to the house or us. That would be a crazy surprise to see dogs running through the house and having lights turn on and off it you weren't expecting it.
