DON’T MISS OUT ON THIS AMAZING OPPORTUNITY TO TURN THIS THREE BEDROOM, TWO BATHROOM HOUSE INTO YOUR VERY OWN HOME! OFFERING SOME HARDWOOD FLOORS, WALL TO WALL CARPETS, A FIREPLACE IN THE LIVING ROOM AND AN ATTACHED TWO CAR GARAGE!
Thanks to Burbed reader Lisa for this find!
Let’s go straight to the photos:
Wow. You know a house is grand when the fireplace has its own room. Now that’s swanky!
The fact this is already pending, and at such a low price, can mean only one thing: someone bought this as a Christmas present over the holidays.
So who is the lucky person to get this amazing gift? Why is it an amazing gift? Why look at the instant equity you’re about to unlock!
That’s right. It sold for $650k not that long ago. That means that you’re looking at $452,000 in instant equity.
Sure you may need do a few repairs… but once its done…. boom! A gift that keeps on giving.
So congrats to the person who found this under their tree this morning. Youa are definitely a winner!

The window bars are nice but no sniper tower …… is it even properly hardened?

190k for trash? No thanks. Keep dreaming – this listing is worth 40k tops.

SmilingCat, don’t worry. There are plenty of flying bullets to dodge.

Merry Christmas everyone.
Any criticism of this house must be weighed against its price. At this price, it’s a good deal any way you look at it. The house is actually only steps away from Palo Alto. Yes, Palo Alto extends East of Fwy 101. You can see Palo Alto Airport is right there. There can’t be any crime to that side since no one lives at the airport.

really?
are you that closed minded?
it’s a descent simple house and in a good location.
IGNORANCE…

R Estater,
By your logic, this POS should be worth a lot more since it’s in Palo Alto. Should it be worth $1 million? Or are the rest of the POS Palo Alto properties worth a lot less?
Wait, I’m sorry. What am I thinking?! You have NO logic.

That’s correct. He is a complete and utter idiot.

ideal user – I think the bars on the windows are a hint that the location isn’t so great.
