The City of Houston confirmed to ABC13 that Laxmi Nagaraj's home had been ordered for demolition almost two years prior before she bought it at an auction in Harris County.
"There is no house. Nothing is there," Nagaraj said. "And no one is telling me who is accountable. No one informed me of anything. That's all I know."When Laxmi Nagaraj moved to Houston from India six years ago, she dreamed of owning her home. After years of saving her Houston ISD substitute teaching paycheckS, she finally had enough to make that dream a reality.
The paperwork finally came on March 11, and on March 12, she went to her house with a locksmith to change the locks, but her home was gone. The administrative order gave the owner up to 45 days from the order date to either repair or demolish the building. If the owner fails to comply with the order, the owner's time expires, and the city moves forward in the interest of public safety to satisfy the order and demolish the building without further notice.
