This one isn’t in Oakland County. It’s not even in Michigan. Still, we think it falls under the category of interesting real estate stories, so we are writing about it today.
Albert, Texas is for sale and it could be yours for $2.5 million. The Albert Texas web site says the population is 4, but I have read conflicting articles that say nobody lives there (which I find more believable). Be sure to check out the photos of smiling faces on their site. Sure makes it look like a vibrant place.
For your $2.5 million, you will get 13 acres, a 100 year old dance hall, a goat pin (I think that is a corral), a fruit stand and an ice house.
If you buy it, let us know. We will come visit.

Do the people convey?

Do they throw in a few goats or have they all moved on, as it were?
