The $589,000 asking price was based on us completing the remodel. Other priorities got it the way and we would prefer for someone to buy it “as is” and finish to their own designs. We have estimates to do 1. Roof 2. Soffit and gutter 3. Exterior paint 4. Windows 5. Both bath remodels We have already done some interior paint and wallpaper and all new carpet and luxury vinyl. The balance we feel should cost us under $60,000 and if someone would like to do it their selves we will lower the price “as is” to $500,000 firm. After we start the remodel the home will be withdrawn until completion of the work.
