Recently, I participated in a survey about "Hidden Gems" in real estate in today's market.  The purpose of the survey was to find out what particular characteristics might not necessarily be reflected in the listing price of the property, but were placed high in value by buyers.  See the graphic below:

Now, like with all things in life, when I see something that I want, but it doesn't seem immediately attainable, I figure out how I can get it.  There are some things, most certainly you can not change about a home:  View, neighborhood quality, schools.  But there are plenty of things you can:  New roof, granite counter tops, fabulous closets. 

If you want to create a valuable asset for yourself, why not take this advice:  Buy the worst house on the best block.  If it doesn't have everything, think about those things you CAN change, and make it your own.  You can do this with no money out of pocket for renovation, with a 203K renovation loan
