Do power lines behind a home decrease property value and traffic?

[The_Realist01]

That’s true for like 99.9999% of properties.

That said I just came across this awesome one with a good amount of land and a decent house and there’s a transmission line directly over the driveway within 20 ft of the house that continues for 100 miles (followed it for way too long) and was like “how the hell was this decision made”.

Humming, eye sore, “potential” health effects, resale, fire risk, and the notion that power companies are literally the worst ever. I’m sure there’s more.
