Actually, the house has to have a garage, the former owners had removed the Garage Door and turned it into a bedroom illegally. And to get FHA loans for a first time buyer, it must have a garage.
I picked it up really cheap, Complete Re-Pipe, moved water heater from inside to outside too, 70% new electrical, with new recessed lighting, brand new central heat. New Windows, New Doors, and kitchen, new bath, kept the hardwood and re-stained them. There is still plenty of room for Profit. Just need to be smart about it. Can't just call Subs and contract it all out.
It's hard to find, but there are deals out there.
