I thought they might do that, too, but they were pretty busy hosing down and protecting an adjacent house and a portable classroom behind it.
As it was, it cost our insurance a couple thousand dollars to clean up smoke damage in the adjacent house. It surprised me our insurance paid, since we started it.
Also, we made a $1,000 donation to the fire department to cover their expenses, paid $175 for pizza for the firemen/women after it was over, and paid $6,800 for a contractor (my cousin, actually) to come in with a backhoe, clean up the debris, take out the basement walls and floor, backfill and sheepsfoot the lot, etc. All in all, it cost us roughly $10,000 to get rid of it.
But, the house had served its purpose. By today's standards, the rooms were small, single garage, the floor plan not desirable, and it was plain worn out inside. We estimated it would cost $50,000 to renovate it just to make it rentable.
And our church also has a Child Development Center a mile down the street that is running at capacity of 60 kids with no room for expansion. So one option is to build a new, larger CDC on this lot.
