Property Description
Fixer-Upper Alert: 3-BR Colonial with Huge Upside Calling All Investors, Contractors, and Handypeople! Unleash your creativity and maximize your ROI with this classic three-bedroom Colonial. Featuring a coveted 2-car detached garage and a solid footprint, this property is the ultimate blank canvas waiting for your vision. The home requires substantial repairs and cosmetic updates, making it a rare, high-margin opportunity to get in on the ground floor, build massive sweat equity, or execute a profitable flip. This property is an ideal match for optimal financing since it qualifies for renovation loans or cash buyers. Best of all, you will experience zero holding friction because the home is completely vacant and immediately available for a fast closing. Logistics are as easy as it gets it is on a lockbox and incredibly easy to show, allowing you to bring your contractor and walk through today. Properties with this much raw potential don't stay on the market long. Grab your toolbelt and secure your next project before someone else does! Bring your flashlight.
