Des Moines, IA

Built in 1910, this 4-bedroom two-story charmer is ready for its next chapter. With original details like beautiful working parlor doors in the entryway, a wood staircase, and a brick sidewalk in front, it still holds that classic 1910 charm - while offering a rare opportunity to build serious sweat equity. Priced at $125,000, well below its $168,000 assessed value, this home isn't for the faint of heart. It needs updates from top to bottom, but for the right buyer with tradesman skills, it's a chance to create something special and walk away with instant equity. Three bedrooms upstairs, plus a non-conforming fourth in the basement, and plenty of room to make it your own. Two-car detached garage behind the home with alley access provides plenty of additional parking (and state fair parking income). This one's for the visionary - the DIYer, the renovator, the one who sees potential where others see work. If you're ready to roll up your sleeves and bring this piece of Des Moines history back to life, this could be your perfect project. Cash, conventional loans, and Neighborhood Finance Corporation renovation and repair funds are available for qualified buyers.
