Note: There are some
settling cracks in the brick and several minor spots inside. Price
reflects
a reduction in price for the remediation of these problems and a carpet
allowance.
We would
consider selling the property in two parts, the house on
10ħAC for
you to get a traditional loan on, and a possible owner financed loan
on the remaining 31ħAC. The house on 10AC has been appraised
for $325,000. The
additional land loan would be for
$114,000.
with a 10% down payment.
