The owner of the iconic Breaking Bad house is looking to sell it for $4 million, which is ten times higher than the estimated value.
Hey, sellers can ask however much they want for their house! However, it’s only worth what a buyer is willing to pay for it…
The owner believes the property’s fame and turning it into a themed vacation rental or a museum will justify the cost. Solid ideas, but in order for a buyer to drop that kind of dough, it’ll help for buyers to have as many reasons as possible.
So here’s a list of 4 ways buying the legendary Albuquerque home could be worth every penny she’s hoping to get:
With fans regularly reenacting Walter White’s iconic rooftop toss, you might never need to buy pizza—or even groceries—again. As long as you’re cool with eating only pizza every meal, just keep a ladder handy, collect your frequent pizza deliveries (without even having to tip the driver, mind you!), and enjoy the endless free pies being tossed onto your roof. Considering how the price of food only goes up over time, this perk could really add up over the years.
Walter White hid cash all over that house! Who’s to say the props team didn’t miss a few bundles? Whether it’s behind the insulation in the garage, in space-saver bags in the crawl space, there’s always the chance you’ll strike gold—or at least a duffel bag of cash.
Maybe, just maybe, the creators of the show will film another season of Breaking Bad. Perhaps a sequel showing his son taking over his dad’s business, or a prequel showing how Walter became a science whiz when he was a teen. If so, owning this house could pay off big time. Production crews would likely shell out serious cash to film on location. But honestly, wouldn’t you pay them to bring us another season or two?
Forget about dealing with pushy door-to-door salespeople. Anytime someone knocks on your door, you can channel your inner Heisenberg and yell, “I AM THE ONE WHO KNOCKS!” It’s intimidating, iconic, and likely to send them running. Think of all the money you’ll save avoiding unnecessary purchases—replacement windows, solar panels, overpriced knives, or subscription services you didn’t need in the first place. (Although you may want to take a peek and make sure it isn’t a Girl Scout selling cookies… You never want to pass up a chance to buy those!)
