WEXFORD, Pa. - It could be the deal of a lifetime. A Pittsburgh-area couple, Bob and Ricki Husick, are offering anyone who buys their home full cash-back upon their death and even their full inheritance, currently worth at least $500,000.

The Husicks have been trying to sell their home for almost a year, but have failed to do so in the current shaky market.

Bob Husick said he's asking $399,900 for the four-bedroom, three and a half bath home about 20 miles north of Pittsburgh.

According to the Husicks' offer, the buyer would get the money back when the couple dies. And if the buyer agrees to care for them in old age, they could also inherit their retirement home in Arizona, bringing the estate's current value to about $500,000.

Times are truly tough.

I'm sure there'll be incentives of all types out of desperation to sell a home. Honestly,

It's so hard to believe that many people's dreams of owning a home has been realized as a nightmare.

People are selling their homes at 50%+ than their asking price, or some are struggling paying 2 mortgages.

I don't know what it will take to resolve these issues, but it can't come soon enough for some.

Ricki Lake showed off a newly trim figure at a charity event in Los Angeles on Thursday, and credits a strict exercise regimen for the transformation.

"I think I had [that muscle] under all that fat all those years. I think it was just there," Lake told PEOPLE at the Choose Your Cause Launch Party and Charity Benefit at Fred Segal Fun in Santa Monica.

Her hard work has definitely paid off, she looks great!

Her secret? "I work out with a trainer three days a week," she said.

Lake, who is single, dated a personal trainer after her 2004 split from husband Rob Sussman. But don't expect similar sparks to fly this time.

"He is totally hot, but he's 25, and I have to draw the line at 30," said Lake, who is 39. "Thirty is like my starting point."

Besides, she said, she isn't actively looking to jump back into a relationship. "I'm just starting dating, and I'm not desperate, and I'm not lonely," she said. "I'm really happy being alone."

In most recent project, Lake serves as executive producer on a new documentary, The Business of Being Born, about the maternity care system in America.

"It looks at all that from my own personal experiences," says Lake, who has two sons with Sussman. "It's fascinating."
