The purpose of this series is to alert buyers to some of the best deals in the Louisville area. Most of these houses require work to bring them up to par. However, when the work is complete, the new owner should have significant equity in the property. Many of these homes have offers within days if not hours of hitting the market and multiple offer situations are common. This is especially true for homes below $150,000.
I attempt to find the hidden gems that have been overlooked for one reason or another. This week I focused on houses for first-time homebuyers in Bullitt County and found 2 great houses in the same neighborhood.
The first (pictured) is a 3BR/2 Bath home with a downstairs master and a large eat-in kitchen that is available for a little over $110,000. The utilities need to be turned on for a thorough inspection by a professional, but this house appears to be in great shape for a foreclosure. The carpet is probably beyond saving as it has several stains and a strong pet smell. Beyond that the refrigerator and stove have gone MIA and a few minor repairs are needed.
The second house (not shown) also has 3 BRs, 2 baths, a downstairs master, an eat-in kitchen. Additionally, this house has an unfinished basement and several upgrades. The house is currently listed at $130,000. I toured this house 3 months ago before the foreclosure auction and it was in prisitne condition at the time.
If you are interested in viewing either of these homes, please contact me as soon as possible. Note, that pre-approval letters must be submitted with offers. If you are not pre-approved, I'll be happy to recommend a lender who should be able to qualify you quickly.
