Denver Property Owners Challenge Investor's Acquisition Tactics Amidst Neglect List
In Denver, property owners are contesting the methods used by an investor, John Crays, who targets neglected properties. These properties, often on the city's derelict list, are seen as opportunities for Crays to acquire through legal maneuvers. While some neighbors appreciate his efforts to address blight, others, like Justine Sandoval, argue that these tactics threaten their family homes. Sandoval, a fourth-generation resident, is determined to retain her family's property despite its inclusion on the neglected list. The city’s list includes properties deemed unsafe or uninhabitable, often with absentee owners.
