"World's Cheapest" 2 Bedroom House In US Goes On Sale For $1

A two-bedroom house in Michigan, United States, has recently been put on sale for $1, as per a report in the New York Post. The house, which is called the "world's cheapest home" as per its listing, is located about 30 miles outside of Detroit and has two-bedrooms and one bathroom. 

"Introducing the 'World's Cheapest Home!' in the heart of Pontiac, Michigan! Priced at a mind-boggling $1 (yes, you read that right), this home is not just a house - it's a ticket to the real estate adventure of a lifetime," reads the description of the listing on realtor Zillow's website. The property was previously sold for $4,092 in 2022, as per the Post. 

According to agent Christopher Hubel, the 724-square-foot area could become "a masterpiece that will make Chip and Joanna green with envy," referring to "Fixer Upper" stars Chip and Joanna Gaines. 

"The roof might have seen better days, but hey, it's not leaking yet-it's just keeping you on your toes, providing an unexpected shower of excitement when you least expect it," it reads. The interior photos show scratched hardwood floors throughout the house, a mould-covered tub in the bathroom, and a kitchen along with an "avant-garde 'floor hole' art installation that is conveniently located next to the furnace." The quirky listing describes the house's exterior as "a garden so wild, even Mother Nature would raise an eyebrow. The overgrown shrubbery and exotic weeds lend an air of mystery, inviting local critters for an impromptu garden party."

Mr Hubel told Crain's Detroit Business he is not certain whether his client would actually accept a $1 offer and predicted the house will sell for $45,000 to $50,000 if all bids are received. He added that remodelling the 1956-built home would probably cost around $20,000, whereas hiring a firm to undertake the work would probably cost around $45,000.

Discussing the $1 price, he said, "I've wanted to do this for years. A property will always find its true market value unless you overprice it. This is a chance to show that."

US Power Firm Admits It May Have Sparked Texas' Largest Wildfire Ever

A US power company admitted Thursday that its equipment may have sparked the largest wildfire in Texas' history. Xcel -- the parent of Southwest Public Service Company, which provides electricity to part of the state -- said it was working with officials investigating the cause of the blaze that charred more than a million acres (over 400,000 hectares). "Based on currently available information, Xcel Energy acknowledges that its facilities appear to have been involved in an ignition of the Smokehouse Creek fire," the company said. Hundreds of homes are thought to have been destroyed in the fire, which is known to have killed at least two people and over 3,000 farm animals. Xcel, which is facing at least one lawsuit, denied its equipment was improperly maintained. "However, we encourage people who had property destroyed by, or livestock lost in, the Smokehouse Creek fire to submit a claim to Xcel Energy through our claims process," the statement said. The W

It's Official, Kamala Harris Is Democratic Candidate For US Election

US Vice President Kamala Harris effectively secured the Democratic party's presidential nomination Friday, confirming her remarkable rise to party standard bearer in November's showdown against Republican Donald Trump. Kamala Harris was the sole candidate on the ballot for a five-day electronic vote of nearly 4,000 party convention delegates. She will be officially crowned at a Chicago convention later this month. "I am honored to be the presumptive Democratic nominee for President of the United States," Kamala Harris, 59, said on a phone-in to a party celebration after securing enough votes by the second day of the marathon vote. In the two weeks since President Joe Biden ended his reelection bid, Kamala Harris has gained full control of the party. No other Democrats stepped forward to challenge her elevation to the top of the ticket, making her confirmation as the first Black and South Asian woman ever to secure a major party's nomination a formality.

All You Need To Know About Donald Trump's 1st Criminal Trial

Donald Trump goes on trial Monday for allegedly covering up hush money payments to hide affairs ahead of the 2016 presidential election which propelled him into the White House. He will become the first former US president to go on criminal trial when jury selection begins next week. Here are the key questions ahead of the landmark trial: What is Trump accused of? As Trump closed in on victory in the 2016 presidential election, adult film star Stormy Daniels was paid $130,000 to keep quiet about an alleged 2006 sexual tryst with Trump. The payments, made by Trump's lawyer at the time, Michael Cohen, were revealed by The Wall Street Journal in January 2018. Prosecutors have seized on the concealment of the payments as "legal fees" in the Trump Organization's accounts when Cohen was reimbursed as the heart of their case. Prosecutors say Trump "concealed the reason for these payments... which clearly were paid in order to influence voters," former prosec
