After the deed, the Brüning family left the house and moved to relatives in Maurenmark. The house was abandoned until 2017 and there was no one who wanted to buy the property. The abandoned house has been used repeatedly by homeless people as accommodation over the years. After a fire in February 2017, the city council decided to demolish the house. After the demolition, the property served as a parking lot for the residents of the street.
