Whatever Happened To The Watts Family Home?

Publish date: 2024-05-06

The Watts family purchased their home for $399,954 in 2013, and it faced an uphill battle to find a new owner (per Realtor). Its value had reached $648,100 by 2020, but the crimes associated with it turned away potential buyers. That children had been murdered only made it more difficult to interest anyone. Appraiser Orell Anderson told Realtor that to get a buyer, up to a 25% discount could be necessary.

The U.S. Sun said the house finally sold in 2022 for $600,000. It was bought by the Miller family from LoKation Real Estate, and the agent was quick to celebrate a sale that would "put love, family, and laughter back into this house." Fresh controversy preceded the Millers' buying the home — The Sun reported earlier that year that the house had been listed by Rocket Homes under a false address without front view photos. The same listing required any potential buyers to have ready proof of funding before getting a tour to avoid true crime aficionados looking to visit a grisly crime scene.
