Collapsing Estates

Collapsing Estates is about great houses that were built to outlive their owners, and the ground that had other plans. Gilded Age mansions on a cliff that is coming apart underneath them. Compounds on glacial bluffs that lose feet of land every winter. Estates on ground that was a landslide long before anyone drew a property line on it. Each episode follows one address: how it was built and when, what the ground is really made of, the first crack, the permit that was refused, the insurer that walked away, and what the place is worth once a buyer reads the survey. Real prices, real records, real numbers. No invented owners, no fake quotes. New episode every week. Disclaimer: educational and documentary content only, based on publicly available reporting, scientific studies and official records. Not legal, financial, insurance or real-estate advice.
