Unpopulated, 1- House Texas Town 'Sold'

SAN ANTONIO - Someone in Italy placed the winning bid of $3.8 million on Friday for an unpopulated, one-house Texas town auctioned online.

No one lives permanently in the 13-acre town of Albert, about 60 miles north of San Antonio, but the tavern created from the frame of the old general store is open on weekends.

The town also includes a pavilion, an 85-year-old dance hall, a tractor shed, a three-bedroom house, plus peach and pecan orchards. But before town owner Bobby Cave signs the deed over, he must ensure the eBay bid is legitimate. Cave said that unlike the usual items bought through eBay, there are no contractual obligations when it comes to real estate.

There's just not any way to insist that a guy from Italy write me a check for three million, said Cave, 47, an Austin real estate agent. Even if the deal doesn't go through, Cave said he has about five other prospective buyers genuinely interested in the town.

Our office is located in Beverly Hills and if youre looking to buy or sell from anywhere in the world we can do it. Have a great rest of the weekend.
