Just want to share a project I am working on.
A house at 75023. Listed at $99k, and reduced to $84.9k. (rent comp shows $1100/mon) tax value $104k. (1300sf, 3bd/2bath)
My realtor called me two weeks ago. The previous buyer backed out (contract price at $76k) due to foundation issue. I looked at the house and jumped in. Offered $67k and counted from bank for $70k. The foundation repair cost is about $3550 and other repair about $4k.
The deal will close by 4/12.
Any comments are welcome.
