He told them about the covenant out front and didn't attempt to hide it.
By the look of his house he doesn't have the money to take chances with a lawsuit over the sale of his house.
By his age and the look of his house he needs the money and just wants a quick sale.
He may be under the impression that by agreeing to the covenant when he purchased the house he is liable for the conditions of sale and he can't afford legal advice to determine if he is liable or not.
The Pitts house is many times more expensive, lavish even, compared to Rufus' humble digs.
This looks like a case of a comportable middle class Afro American professional couple taking advantage of a not too bright but decent poor white guy to get some publicity and a cheap revenue property.
Lord I never thought I'ld live to see the day when I would say something like that.
I bet you're right. I'd be interested to know if the black couple were actually in the market to buy a house. It sounds like they heard about the curmudgeonly old fart with a racist bent and decided to try and make a quick buck.
Can you say fed gubbermint employment made this all possible. If not Fed than state or county gubbermint. I'm talking about the Black scammers who are suing.
They are trying to do a mini Mugabe on this idiot. Sorry to be racist but thing stinks of racism and it isn't white racism.
Hey! he's white so he's fair game for socialists liberal commies in this country.
You don't look very hard. This is done all the time, usually by whites against other whites. Think Enron, Worldcomm, etc. I personally go looking for undervalued real estate and stocks all the time. Do I have to tell the other guy that you are selling it for a lot less than it is worth ?
If I am selling a car, do I have to tell the guy that the other dealer is selling a better car for a lesser price?
Let's face it. This looks like a case of a comfortable middle (or upper) class (any race) American professional couple taking advantage of a not too bright but decent poor white (or any race) guy.
Bottom line, the more intelligent and better informed take advantage of the lesser intelligent and lesser informed all the time.
What an outrageous, racist leap that is to make. Shame on you.
