Thanks for your email and for visiting our website. It's difficult to estimate market value on Huntsville houses without having first seen it, so much depends on how well a property shows to prospective buyers especially the older homes of five points. We can however determine a market range by researching recent sales of similar properties in the area. The link below is to MLS activity on McKinley Avenue of two bedroom homes since 06.01.09. The one sale was at $70 per square foot. The property was on market for 117 days before going under contract. The house at 712 McKinley Avenue was listed at almost $128 psf and has been on market since 07.8.08.
It's pretty obvious that $128 psf is too high for the 712 McKinley Avenue house or it would have sold long ago. The link below is to a summary of all MLS activity in the five points area of two bedroom homes since 06.10.09. The average sold price was $102 per square foot with a very wide range of $65 to $134 psf. The average days on market were 104 with a range of 4 to 318 days.
Without having seen your house, you indication it is a 5 out of 10 on condition and referring to what Google indicates your house looks like at the link below. My best estimate is that the house would sell in the $70 to $80 psf range or $98,000 to $112,000.
We cant over stress how important first appearances are in selling a house. A few thousand dollars in work getting a house in it's best condition will always pay off in a higher, faster sale. To help you keep current with MLS activity in your area, we have set up automated notification of new listings or changes to existing listings that may be comparable to your property.
