Interesting picture to use to sell a house?

Okay, not as good as the grim reaper in the living room that was posted a few months back (if anyone has a screen shot of that, please post it again to cheer me up!). However, quite interesting. Do you think he or she is part of the package?

    I think he's lovely. But kunekunes are a kind of pig, so I would. Wish I could afford the package, looks a lovely house.

    May be the house has an agricultural occupancy condition and that's why it is in an auction! They hope nobody will notice the condition - but the pig suggests some agricultural connection so it is a kind of obscure back protection for the agents if someone successfully bids for it and hasn't looked at the legal pack!

    As a retired conveyancing solicitor I believe the information given in the post to be useful assuming any properties concerned are in England/Wales but I accept no liability for it.

    If you look at the full details, they're also selling the "Cornish Pig Company" and all the livestock :D

    For a very reasonable price - unless the business doesn't make a profit... even so nice house. :)

    I want that house........ and the pig please, I think thats my almost dream house (could be a bit older), it seems a cheap price to me, guessing at agricultural occupancy as well.
    Freedom is not worth having if it does not include the freedom to make mistakes.
