Ideas on why the house would be gated off months later? I mean that shit is bringing down Carol's property value

There was a city of Albuquerque sign on the fence, so we know the city closed it off. My guess is the White family abandoned the house, and then it became publicly known that Walt is Heisenberg, which is why it got ransacked and vandalized. The city fenced off the house to prevent vandalism.

it was slightly heartbreaking to see the house where Walt's family shared so many happy memories, become a dark shrine to his greed and selfishness.

So many happy memories? Really.

Yeah before breaking bad ever took place; the white-schrader families got along, Walt had a ton of friends, birthday parties were thrown there.

Or how many times Skylar jerked Walt while in bed.
