Property Description

Akron investors!! This beaut at 781 Amherst St. is primed and ready for its glow-up! This REO gem is newer than most homes in the neighborhood and still bursting with life left, fully prepped as a true project home. The perfect opportunity for the savvy rental investor who wants to create serious cash flow, or the handy buyer who wants to pour in their vision and build long-term equity. After a little neglect (okay, A LOT), this house is practically begging for some love so it can finally become the home it was always meant to be. The dirty work has already been done for you, with the first floor gutted and waiting for a complete transformation. The house comes complete with a welcoming front porch, attached garage, extended driveway, and a larger-than-typical 1/4 acre lot featuring a mostly fenced backyard...with only a few missing panels! All resting on solid bones, little drama, and endless upside as your next cash-flow champion right here in Akron, OH. Ready to turn this bad boy into your next big win? Let's go!
