Curse of Big Island

So I started house hunting in December 2016. 
On my second house hunting trip in February, I found this lovely house in Honokaa,
with nice little balcony which looks up to Ocean.  It had Ocean view from almost every room.
We made an offer and went into escrow after couple counter.
Everything was smooth up to this point. 

I flew for the home inspection again, and the home inspector told me, they found a dead rat in the attic.  My realtor said, it's norm in Big Island to have mouse and rats inside house, you just need a cat.
I love cats, so I thought no problem, but something in my gut didn't feel right.

I had strange dream one evening after returning to Oahu home.
Oriental elderly lady was telling me, there is a creature living behind
the hallway window.  I couldn't make out the dream at that time.
After all, it was just a dream.  I convinced myself.

Then, it was at the final walk through. I still had glitchy feeling.
I don't know why, but every time I go up to the property, I smelled something.
Some odd smell, I can't pin point, but not pleasant smell.
It almost smelled like cow feces or mold. 
I asked the realtors.  "Do you smell something?"
My and Seller's agent both said "no", in harmony.
May be I am too sensitive.  I dismissed it.

At the final walk through, I was in the back yard, finding huge dead chicken
in the middle of the backyard.  It was beautiful and dead.
This was not a good omen.  Why didn't realtor cleaned it up?
I was bit upset.  This was Final walk through!
This incident made me uneasy.
Although, everything else was fine and I signed closing document.

I took Mom to Big Island and we were waiting for transaction to be closed.
My Mother caught nasty flue and got very sick and weak on the third day, atlhough
Escrow was telling us, Officer at County office was very busy and he can't sign off the
papers.  we need to extend our stay. 
We ended up extending our stay for 7 more day!s, and bought all the furnitures and waited and waited.

Finally Seller's agent told us, "Sorry, we can't find Sales record since 1942 and we need to investigate,
it will take long as one year!"
We were stunned!  At this point, we had bought all the furniture, spend money for the extended days for the Hotel and of course, all the airfare up to this point, going back and force between Oahu and Big Island, rental car, accommodation fee,  Inspection fee, etc.  plus all the effort since very first house hunting will be a total waste!!

Still in shock, I pack my bags and left Big Island with Mama still being sick and the key to the lock for the storage, where all the furniture I bought was sitting.
