What is your opinion on buying a house with cemetry at back side.?
Answer could include any practical/non practical reason. But please support your answer with genuine experience /sources.
This is a war memorial cemetry and there is a operational railway track in between, which is busy during the day. There is a big lawn so noise never reaches the house, and house is double glazed. There are other 15 houses in that row, behind which there is a cemetry seperated by railway track and some thick thin bushes. |

If this location OK with you, then you can buy.
But when you buy, you have to think about selling too. You will have allot of problem to sell this place, My opinion, look for another place in a better location, even pay more money, will be healthier for you. Good Luck! |

I lived in a house just like that one, where the back yard backed up to the cemetry. The bigest porblem we had was in the summer when we would be having a BBQ and there was a funeral going on 30 feet away. I don't know how far you prop is from one of the access road that enter the cemetry but if you hear chains rattling in the night, it's just the chain that they use to lock the cemerty access road with. Remember dead people can't hurt you it's the live ones you need to watch out for. |

When I was a child, the house accross the street had a Quaker cemetry on one side. It was strange, since it was in the middle of a subdivision. The cemetry was created in the 1800's and was "historic" in nature, which actually turned out to be pretty cool on Halloween. All of the kids wanted to trick or treat in our sub, because the cemetry added character. As far as I can remember, the house was put up for sale and the owners did not have any difficulty selling it... |

It is an ideal location. You do not have to worry about urban sprawl or noisy neighbors at night. Planning for parties and picnics may be tough if there is a funeral schedule, but that will only be a one hour interruption.
You may have zoning problems if you want to expand.
You may have some drainage issues or right-of-way issues. |

I would research the neighborhood and look at the resale value and marketing time of the other houses surrounding the cemetry. That won't really matter if you plan on living there forever, but since a home is also an investment it's worth at least exploring.
If you have a real estate agent helping with the sale, they might be of some help here. You can also do some basic research yourself on www.zillow.com - type in the address of the house you are thinking about and look at the house values around the area. On Zillow you can also look at prior sales and estimated increase in value. This will tell you if the location affects value and, if so, how much.
My wife is a horror movie junkie, so I personally wouldn't buy a house that close to a cenetry, but that's just me. :) |

It might affect property value. Some people don't like the idea of being near a cemetary or believe in ghosts. If you sell the place down the road, those kind of people will not buy. |

Well if you could see it from your back windows it might be kind of depressing. At least it would be fairly quiet! You would have the occasional funeral prosession going through, the sound of lawn mowers and weed eaters, digging sounds as they dig the new graves. I doubt I would like it. |

There are some people who wouldn't consider buying such a property, so your resale value might be lower than if it weren't there.
On the other hand, you know that there will never be anything else built there, so an inexpensive privacy fence and you'll never think about it, and you don't have to worry about noisy neighbors or loud parties at night. |

I think that it is a personal decision. Personally, my mother owns a home with a cemetery directly across the street and we never think about it. Two new homes have just went up and he other homes have had the same owners for years.
Cemeteries are not scary unless you dwell on it and have little to no effect on the property value. |

i dont think there is anything wrong with it, i have never seen anything wrong with cemetarys i dont even think they are depressing I think they are peaceful.. the only thing i can foresee is if you ever decide to sell the property it may bring down the value of it.. found some great homebuying information, this site has everything for buyers and sellers, good luck im curious to know what you decide to do

Reason not to buy, hard to re-sell or you don't like looking at a cemetary all the time. Reason to buy, will never have a building blocking your "view" ever. |

If you are concerned about resale value, ask your agent to look at past sales on that street compared to other parts of the neighborhood. That's how you will know if it will have an impact.
The cemetary (and the train for that matter) probably have no impact if it is a neighborhood where people want to live. For instance, in the Vinings community in Atlanta, one of the southeast's railroad tracks cuts through it. I'm talking 3 long freight trains in an hour busy some morning -- horn blaring and everything. But there are houses priced at $600,000+ within 15 feet of the tracks. People want to live in Vinings, so the tracks are no problem. |

My opinion is that if theres a similar deal on a house like that without a cemetry in the backyard, id go for it. But if i am VERY interested in it then i wouldnt care. |

I would NOT like it. I watch/have watched tons of scary movies so thats made me paranoid about that kind of stuff. haha. But umm I guess if you aren't scared then its no big deal. It would freak me out and make me kinda sad, but thats just me. |

if you want to buy this home for yourself and live there, why not. Regarding Value of the home and Re Sell, it might not do so great. |
