Let those building and remodeling ideas start flowing, and soon your hammer can start swinging! Once you look past the present condition and start planning its transformation, the possibilities become much easier to envision. Currently a 1-bedroom ranch, this once much-loved home now unquestionably needs extensive repairs, remodeling and renovation, yet it offers a true blank canvas and the opportunity to give it an entirely new chapter. Located in a well-established neighborhood within a mile of Memorial Beach, this is an opportunity to give it the work it requires, personal flair you crave, and care it deserves; let's not overlook the potential for substantial long-term equity as well! The house and property is being sold completely “as-is,” and the seller will make no repairs. The property will not qualify for traditional FHA or VA loans, so cash or renovation/construction financing will be needed. The list agent must meet with the seller and seller representative in person to review offers according to their schedule, so no early offers will be accepted prior to the submission deadline of noon on Monday, September 14, with a 24-hour response time. The bright side? Buyers will have time to obtain repair and remodeling quotes, secure the appropriate financing if needed, and complete their own due diligence without feeling rushed! This property offers the chance to create something truly special in a fantastic neighborhood. Owners were well-liked according to neighbors, please try not to judge condition too harshly. Quick closing!
