PRICED SLASHED TO GARNER OFFERS. OPPORTUNITY KNOCKS! THIS DOUBLE LOT IN WASHINGTON PARK IS PRICED BELOW $800K TRANSFERRED IN "TOTALLY AS-IS CONDITION". Calling out to all BUILDERS, DEVELOPERS, SCRAPERS & BUYERS WITH IMAGINATION. Located just one and a half blocks from Washington Park directly across from South High School playing fields the location is very special & GR8 opportunity at this bargain price.....similarly sized, double Lots, a few blocks to the north, in EAST WASHINGTON PARK are now selling for $1,500,000. 1457 South Franklin has been a rental for the past 20 years & while still livable, is definitely in need of some substantial TLC, so bring your tool belt. It may most likely be purchased for the land value or possibly as a potential pop-top/total remodel. The structure's foundation appears to solid, with no obvious failure. Sellers were told that the 50's structure was moved to this location in the 1980's and set on top off a new foundation, a new basement being excavated out at that time; but have no paperwork to substantiate. Two car detached garage in the rear of the property w/alley access. Surrounded by multi-million dollar homes, pop-tops & 2 story new builds this diamond in the rough is anticipated to conjure significant interest, so write your clean, timely, contract ASAP. Sellers will review all offers as soon as they are received. Cash offers would be preferred w/proof of verifiable funds, but all contracts will be evaluated on their own merits. Again. PROPERTY WILL BE TRANSFERRED IN TOTALLY AS-IS CONDITION. "Opportunity knocks...Experience and Imagination opens the door." We have 5 or 6 buyers with serious interest but as yet no one has offered up an acceptable contract, or one realistic enough to warrant a counter. SELLERS WANT TO SELL!
