Considering that it was sold to the current owner in 2001 for just over $500k, I think it's safe to say his family doesn't own it. It's not difficult to check and see how often a property has been sold. And as I said, this one has been numerous times.

And yes, the article mentions the furniture...but the actual listing states the the house has custom made furniture, no mention of it being Jim Morrison's. Then LOOK AT THE FUCKING photos and see that it's not tacky shit from the 60's, but rather NEW CUSTOM SHIT.

As someone who spent years buying Rock and Roll memorabilia for the company with the world's largest collection and who's actually put his legs into Jim Morrison's famous leather pants, my opinion on the matter is a bit more valid than some racist douchebag on a message board. The same one who tried to equate Graceland to this little townhouse.
