    What's special

    Functional lot
    Bring your tools, design plans, and sweat equity to 500 Mill Avenue South! Nestled in a highly accessible Renton neighborhood, this property presents a fantastic blank slate for flippers, landlords, or ambitious homeowners looking to build immediate equity in a competitive real estate market. The home is in clear need of some repairs, structural attention, and cosmetic updates to fulfill its true potential, making it the perfect candidate for a comprehensive transformation. Because of the required updates, traditional financing will likely not qualify, making this property a cash-only sale. The property is strictly being sold in its current "as-is, where-is" condition with all faults. The seller will make no repairs, modifications, or inspection concessions, allowing an investor to step in and take full charge of the renovation process. Situated on a functional lot with R-10 high-density zoning potential, this location offers convenient access to Downtown Renton, local parks, transit corridors, and major highway routes for an easy daily commute. Do not miss this rare opportunity to purchase a high-potential project in a thriving community. Buyers are advised to verify all property conditions, boundaries, and development capacity to their own satisfaction. Sale subject to approval by the King County Superior Court.
