    What's special

    Sits on two lotsSpacious home
    Investor & Handyman Special – Huge Upside with Owner Financing Available! Excellent opportunity for an investor, contractor, or handyman looking for their next project. This spacious home sits on two lots and offers approximately 2,550 square feet of living space, providing plenty of room to create a beautiful family home or profitable investment. The property is currently in the middle of a renovation. After the previous occupant left the home in poor condition, renovation work began, including extensive cleanup, junk removal, demolition, and new drywall installation. Much of the first-floor drywall has already been completed, while the second floor still requires additional drywall work. The home also needs exterior siding and other finishing work before it can be occupied. Please note: The property is being sold as-is and does not currently have an occupancy permit. The buyer will be responsible for completing the renovations and obtaining the necessary approvals. With the work completed, this property has strong potential and is estimated to be worth approximately $250,000 after renovation. Whether you’re looking to renovate it for your own family or add a valuable property to your investment portfolio, this is an opportunity to build significant equity. Owner financing is available for qualified buyers, making this a great option for someone looking for flexible purchase terms. If you’re looking for a property with great bones, plenty of space, and tremendous upside, schedule a showing and see the potential for yourself.
