So far this is one of the prettiest houses I've been able to snatch up. This home was listed originally at 65,000 as a 2 bed 2 bath house that was over 1,400sqft with hardwood floors throughout! I ended up offering 49,000 contingent on inspection and after the inspection I closed a few days after at 49,000 which was an absolute steal for a house like this.
Mostly Interior Rehab:
Entire home repainted, including all walls, ceilings, and trim work
New carpet laid in all living areas and bedrooms + new flooring installed in kitchen and bathroom + new subfloor and disposal of old subfloor
Cabinets repainted
Trash removal from interior and exterior (significant)
