Calling all investors, flippers, first-time buyers and owner-occupants with a vision! This property may qualify for renovation financing that allows eligible buyers to combine the purchase price and improvement costs into one loan. Depending on the program, financing may be available for projects such as roofing, plumbing, HVAC, windows, flooring, siding, painting, basement finishing, additions, foundation work, kitchen and bathroom renovations, and more. FHA 203(k), HomeStyle, USDA and VA renovation-loan options may be available, subject to borrower and property eligibility. Bring your contractor and explore the possibilities! Renovation-loan information is available upon request. Bring this unfinished renovation across the finish line in Carroll Park. This four-bedroom rowhome offers approximately 1,534 square feet and a substantial head start for an experienced investor, contractor or renovation-minded buyer. Visible work includes an opened first-floor layout, partially installed wood flooring and drywall, recessed-light locations, ductwork, rough plumbing and electrical, some replacement windows and framing throughout. The basement has also been opened for continued work and access to the home’s systems. Make no mistake, this is a full construction project, not a cosmetic fixer. The kitchen, bathrooms, stair system, wall and ceiling finishes, mechanical connections and additional components remain incomplete and require professional evaluation. The property is conveniently located near Lancaster Avenue, Girard Avenue, City Avenue, neighborhood transit and the five-acre Carroll Park recreation site. Once properly completed, nearby renovated four-bedroom sales in the mid-to-upper $200s suggest meaningful ARV potential depending on the final layout, approved bathroom count and quality of renovation. Bank owned and offered in its present condition. Buyers must independently verify the property’s condition, permits, code compliance, measurements, utilities, financing eligibility and projected resale value. Buyer is responsible for resale U&O and removing or clearing any property violations. Seller will make no repairs.
