    What's special

    Oversized parcelSimple layout
    Price Reduced — $70,000 Cash | $80,000 Conventional Financing Investor, renovation, or affordable-home opportunity at 1221 Ballard Street, Lansing, MI 48906. This property is being sold as-is and is priced to reflect its current condition. A major advantage is the oversized two-lot parcel, consisting of the homesite and additional adjoining land within the same parcel. The extra land provides more yard space, privacy, parking or outdoor-use possibilities, and potential future flexibility. Any ability to divide, build on, or otherwise develop the additional land must be independently verified with the City of Lansing. The home has been cleaned and received some interior touch-up painting, but additional repairs and finishing work are still needed. This is an opportunity for a cash investor, landlord, rehab buyer, or conventional purchaser who wants to complete improvements according to their own plans. Property highlights: * House and additional adjoining lot area included * Approximately two-lot-sized parcel * Three-bedroom layout * Large yard with substantial side and rear space * Hardwood floors with restoration potential * Opportunity for renovation, rental, resale, or owner occupancy * Sold in its present as-is condition * Seller will not complete additional repairs Pricing: * $70,000 cash * $80,000 with conventional financing Cash buyers must provide current proof of funds. Financed buyers must provide a valid lender preapproval. All offers must be submitted in writing and should include the proposed closing date, inspection terms, earnest-money deposit, and proof of funds or financing. The seller will consider serious offers but will not accept contracts containing nominal earnest money, unrestricted assignment rights, or unusually long inspection periods. Buyer and buyer’s agent are responsible for verifying measurements, property condition, permitted uses, parcel details, and development possibilities. Showings are available to qualified buyers by appointment.
