About This Home
As of July 2020Opportunity knocks at 1217 Elm St. This property needs a full rehab. Cleared out and ready for construction to begin! This home is a shell and will need creativity and hard work to shine again. Property is a 4 bedroom 1 bath and right across from the intermediate High school. Also a walk a way from city park and right off 13th st for transportation and local restaurants. This can be a great opportunity to build equity, fix and hold as a rental or a potential to flip. Only cash offers will be appropriate at this time and property is being sold as is - where is.
