What do you look for?

[–] [email protected] 16 points 4 months ago

I know of two buildings sort of like that, they both look like a bungalow office building with an empty parking lot and a card reader by the door, one building has plastered over windows, the other has normal but dirty windows

Here's one on Google maps https://maps.app.goo.gl/55qqbQRYY7abKPVy9 I drove past this for years without thinking about it until one day I drove under it.

Now that I know what it is, it's pretty obvious, but how often does the average person really inspect houses as they drive by?

Haha I love how it has four reviews/3.3 stars

That one's pretty obvious though. It's got no windows nor doors, and like 8 condensor units out back.

I bet there are ones that are less obvious

There are other ones, this is just the obvious one. I've only spotted one other in the wild and I forget where it was.
