	It's not a scam. But..... The poster fails to disclose several
	major issues. Is he the actual owner of the home and property
	that he's offering. He should disclose how he arrived at that
	starting price, and whether the unsuspecting purchaser will
	be subject to tax liens etc.

	Since he is a "corporation" then I would check with the NY
	Secretary of State to find out whether the corp is eligible
	to sell real estate.
