Assuming the maze is a hedge maze (or, in the US, a corn maze instead) I’d plant a buttload of catnip along the paths and build in some feline-friendly sheltering.
Takes care of pest control and you get the pleasant surprise of kitties on your way in!
And set up a non-profit operation or co-op or something in the house.

Wouldn't it be a corn maize? :-)
We get Maize Mazes in the UK 🙂
Lol nice one
If it's a legitimate trap, I'll start by escaping the house via the most expedient means, destructively if necessary.
Once in the maze I'll utilize the right-hand rule (or left-hand, it literally doesn't matter as long as you're consistent about it) to find the exit. If no exit is able to be located, I'll switch to an effort to find the beans to create an exit, or otherwise forcible escape the labyrinth's perimeter.
Sell the real estate.
Probably sell it. I believe that hedge mazes are expensive to maintain, and I wouldn't get much good out of a hedge maze.
Would you investigate it for wondrous secrets first?
Gothos, no.
Solve the puzzles. One of them's gotta lead to a magical fantasy kingdom.
