This could make great copy and get some attention to your business. Copied and pasted from a US government email:
U.S. Marshals Selling Russian Spy House in New Jersey
April 12, 2013 - The U.S. Marshals Service is selling a single family home in Montclair, N.J., whose previous owners were part of a Russian spy ring busted by the FBI in 2010. Richard and Cynthia Murphy were the names used by the two Russian spies who lived in the Montclair house. The house is listed for sale at $444,900 through Fast Track Real Estate Co. of Waldwick, N.J. Built in 1950, the 1,830 square-foot house has four bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms, a recently-updated kitchen, a garage and an unfinished basement.

    LOL yes, but spies at least seem a little more glamorous than drug dealers and gang bangers, and probably doesn't affect the values as negatively.

    True Karen - but once pedophiles, heroin addicts and hoarders are discovered (I wholesale the hood but fix and flip in the burbs), the values drop just as fast - LOL.

    The NSA & IRS are probably competing bidders for this one :)

    I had such high hopes for my current one. Guy from Mexico bought it and disappeared after a couple of years...
    No boxes of money yet, no bodies in the back yard either thank goodness!
