About This Home

As of May 2021

I would say this is an INVESTORS DREAM, but thats not the case. It's like HITTING THE LOTTERY for ANYONE who decides to make this investment. This isn't just any Gem, it's like finding an Opal or someone selling you Pearl at a fourth of the cost. Only thing is that this Gem needs to be cleaned polished a little, but when its done everyone will line up in amazement. This home was used as a tax office for over 30years and is now in need of a new owner and care. It will require some work but when hard work pays off it will be like an ice cold glass of water in 100 degree heat while working on black top, COMPLETELY REFRESHING. Home will be sold in AS-IS CONDITON, Seller to make NO REPAIRS, BUYER RESPONSIBLE for Use & Occupancy Inspections and Requirements as well as ALL TRANSFER TAXES.
