A man in Detriot, MI., has been trying to get rid of a home - the listing is asking for $5000, but still no takers - after a $2000 price drop the home still had no one interested. So the man has no offered to trade the Motor City house for an Apple iPhone 6.

Seems like a great idea, not to mention a nice little bit of free advertising for Apple, but there is a proverbial worm in the Apple - any takers will be required to pay the back taxes, which are more than the original asking price of the house, $6000 to be exact. According to his realtor, “It sounds to me like he wants the (iPhone 6+) version, but I think he’s willing to negotiate.” It also seems that he is willing to trade for a 32GB iPad.



Ubergizmo notes that they can't be sure if this is a joke or if it is simply to try and gain some attention, but if it is the latter, they admit that it is working. According to one person, Jamal Kemp, who has shown slight interest in the property, “I work on houses, so I would love to have it for that. It doesn’t take a lot of money to fix these houses back up. I would (be willing to buy it).”
