AVERAGE MONTHLY ELECTRIC BILL FOR THIS HOUSE IN 2009 WAS JUST $248.00!!! (Stream Energy)
Water bill in non-watering months was about $25. During high watering mos., it was around $100.
THIS HOME IS NOT IN THE SHORES, ALTHOUGH IT IS ACROSS HWY. 66 FROM THE SHORES; WE HAVE N O HOA FEES!!!! THE SHORES HAS VERY STRICT OUTSIDE HOUSING CODES AND COSTS MORE TO LIVE IN....AND YET OUR NEIGHBORHOOD IS JUST AS NICE -- AND HAS LARGER LOTS FOR THE MOST PART, WHICH YOU CAN SEE WHEN YOU RIDE THROUGH OUR AREA!!!!!
VIRTUALLY NO COST IN UPDATING HAS BEEN SPARED!!
PLEASE NOTE THAT:
I PURCHASED THIS HOME IN 2006, AS AN INVESTMENT....TO FLIP FOR A PROFIT.......BUT AS A RESULT OF THE PAST 2 YEAR DOWNSLIDE IN THE HOUSING MARKET, I'VE SPENT MORE THAN WHAT WILL ALLOW ME TO GET ANY PROFIT ON THIS PROPERTY!! HAVING TO PAY THE TAXES FOR OVER 3 YEARS HAS ALSO GREATLY INCREASED SPENDING COSTS THAT MUCH MORE.
AT MY NEW LOWER LISTING PRICE, I'M WAY, WAY BELOW EVEN COMING CLOSE TO BREAKING EVEN ON THIS HOUSE!!!!!
THIS HOME WAS APPRAISED AT $250,000 JUST BEFORE I PURCHASED IT IN 2006 -- OUT OF DATE AND WITH SOME REPAIRS NEEDED!!! I'VE TAKEN THE HOUSE WAY OVER THAT APPRAISED VALUE SINCE.....WAY MORE THAN WHAT THE CURRENT MARKET DICTATES!!
If you think this home might be the right one for you, please give me a call or e-mail me. I'll be glad to arrange a showing. I tried listing with a realtor after TIRING of FORECLOSURE-SHOPPERS , but then discovered it would be much easier to have direct contact with realtors and potentail home buyers!
THERE ARE TOO MANY NICE DETAILS ABOUT THIS HOME TO BE MENTIONED IN THE AD, AND NOT SHOWN IN THE PICS OR SLIDESHOW.
THE CURRENT LIST PRICE IS VALID UNTIL MARCH 1'ST!!!
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING!
