Tampa, FL – Faced with mounting supply costs and an unstable financing market, new home developer Sally-May McKeen, 8, is faced with an ugly reality; she must demolish her property. “It’s not fair,” Sally cries, “Everyone else gets to make money but me!”
Like many home buyers over the past few years, Sally had little verifiable income, but with only a $5.00 a week allowance and no credit history, she managed to finance a 4-bedroom home with a large deck, 2 swimming pools and a small barn for a pony.
“There’s no kitchen, no bathrooms, and the house is wantonly built with differently colored plastic blocks,” said Real-Estate agent Patty Snow, “There’s no way I can sell this. Sure, two years ago we could have made a fortune, but now…”
The decision to demolish has been spurred by Sally’s principal financier, Daddy. When confronted about his decision to halt Sally’s construction, he said, “Look, these damn Lego’s are expensive. Money doesn’t grow on trees you know. What’s more, I’m tired of stepping on the silly things. You can’t even walk around this house with bare feet anymore.”
This isn’t the first setback Sally-May has dealt with on this property. Only a week ago, many of her construction supplies were stolen from her building site. The materials were recovered after Sally discovered that they’d been used by her brother to build a Dinosaur ranch. “She doesn’t share so I had to take them, otherwise my Raptor’s would escape,” explained Bobby, 6. The family dispute was quickly settled by Mommy, who said, “I’ve had it up to here with the two of you, play nice!”
This upset follows a dramatic week which saw Barbie’s Malibu Dream House foreclosed on. “Of course she couldn’t pay her mortgage, she spends all her money on clothes,” says ex-boyfriend Ken. “Don’t worry, she’ll land on her back somewhere, that broad has been seen naked by so many kids that the Pope tried to have her moved to a different diocese.”
