Grow ? what grow, we have shrinkage here ....

It has happened many times in my town. Existing houses with koi ponds for sale. Buyers get a reduction in price because of the ponds, and owners 'moved' the koi. Before the deal was finalized, the ponds are puntuated and filled in, filter-tanks, plumbing, waterfalss, and everythign and anything that has to do with koi were removed. Most of those ponds are 10,000G plus. On average, owner lost about $250,000 in selling proceed just for having that darn pond in the yard.
