Woman finds newly-bought house being demolished four days after purchase.

A Farmington Hills woman is looking for answers after a home she recently purchased was demolished Saturday.

Susan Tusk purchased a foreclosed home at 20800 Rensselaer St. in Farmington Hills at a foreclosure action for $1,000 last Wednesday. On Saturday, Tusk went to the house to work on it, to find city workers bulldozing the house.

Tusk said she has paperwork that shows she purchased the house from Oakland.

Neighbors said the house burned down two years ago and they complained to the city that it was a dangerous eyesore that needed to come down.

In July, city officials ordered that the owners of four foreclosed houses demolish the properties in the next 60 days, or the city will move in and do it.
