SOLD for $66,950 just a few weeks ago but is NOW back on the market for $50,000. In the town of Onondaga within the Marcellus school system, unpretentiously nestled on a half acre is an example of what HUD homes are known for, “A Great Deal” This home has a list of improvements from 2002 which include: plumbing, electrical, carpeting and flooring, interior/exterior paint, entry doors and windows, new furnace and hot water tank with a large shed/barn all in a 4 bedroom 2 full bath 1110 sqft. home. Public water and a septic system before you ask. The property is assessed for $98,500. HUD’s list price is $50,000.  $45,000

But wait, before you think about calling any Realtor, consider this. I’ve seen it time and time again, unsuspecting buyers placing and winning bids on HUD homes only to see their dreams dashed and lose the house. It’s not their fault. Most Realtors are unfamilar with all of HUD’s confusing rules and regulations. Financing a HUD home is key and not every realtor knows how to do it. Usually in 2 weeks after winning the bid I see that same property relisted on HUD’s website like today. Experience here is the key to success and with over 260 happy HUD customers over 20 years I can do the same for you. I specialize in HUD homes.

If this home sounds good to you, here are the steps to give you the best chance of scoring this property. Your first step is to click here for directions. Address is 4692 Beef Street off of Howlett Hill Rd. Your next step is to drive by the property. Step 3 is to call me at 315-952-2671 where I’ll go over steps 4 and 5. Timing is critical so don’t hesitate. And don’t feel like everyone is going to do this, many look, several drive by and few actually bid. John Adolfi 315-952-2671

                                                              SOLD!                       Nestled between a Church and a little old lady, this HUD home groans with impatiently of its new owner. Located at 110 Malden Rd. in the Village of Mattydale home of the Hollywood Theater.  (Did anyone other than me stand in that long line for the premier of Star Trek in 79?) The home has technically 4 bedrooms, but it is more of a 2-3 bedroom home.  The ceilings upstairs in the two bedrooms are 6 foot tall.  There is a medium small living room, eat in kitchen and a dining room.  The furnace looked fairly new in the crawl space and so did the windows and don’t let the boarded up windows fool you they are looking fine from inside the house.  The roof looks great and so does the vinyl siding. The lot is a deeeeep 60′x357′  There is a 12′x12′ deck needing attention and a shed.  Bid deadline is 6/14/09.  Asking price is $40,000 and worth every penny.  DIRECTIONS

SOLD!!!

168 West 5th St. South in the City of Fulton WAS NOT remarkable until today June 12th.  The home is in fair to good condition. Three bedrooms and one full bath inside its 1,192 sq. ft. 2 story frame. A shed instead of a garage on a 55′x132′ lot all told makes this home VERY average. The assessed value of $55,700 and the fact it sold in a great market for $55,000 in 2005 still makes me yawn.  HUD just lowered their asking price of $42,000 to $37,800 and made me want to re-write this blog. As I let my imagination run wild with what the ultimate selling price might be compelled me blog this property.  A magic number that will tickle anyone desiring to live in an “average” home in the former “City with a future”.  Contact me for a tour.  Bid deadline is this coming Tuesday the 16th for owner occupants and then the hungry investors can gooble this one up on the 17th of June. Bank pre-approvals are a must.  DIRECTIONS
