zimmer Posted July 1, 2008 Share Posted July 1, 2008 Well the time has come for us to see our grandparents house. We still have a few things we are sorting through (as you can see in the pics) but we will have it fully cleaned out soon.To see the posting and realtor information click here.Keller Williams Realty Property Details for Listing #8949602 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sevfiv Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 Did your grandparents trash the house beyond repair or something? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zimmer Posted July 2, 2008 Author Share Posted July 2, 2008 Did your grandparents trash the house beyond repair or something? No, not at all. House needs to be jacked in order for it to be level. The house is just old. My grandpa, dad, and uncle redid most of the inside, but the lack of care is evident. It does have the original floors in great condition tho. They just dont want to have to go through the hassle of fixing it up. I think the realtor decided to sell it as "lot value" :who knows: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porchman Posted July 2, 2008 Share Posted July 2, 2008 It's a great lot on a quiet block. The big detractor is the disheveled Solar Supply building across the street. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The big detractor is the disheveled Solar Supply building across the street.Yeah, but they are a nice group of people. They have an old partial drive way that can hold 3 cars they let us use. Also there is a builder who wants to buy it to tear it down, but we would rather sell it to an individual. The same builder has 4 other lots on the block.

Dan the Man Posted July 3, 2008 Share Posted July 3, 2008 If you would rather sell it to an individual, you probably shouldn't market it as "lot value". Uploading some better pictures, including some of the interior, would make the listing appeal more to individuals who might be interested in owning an older home. Highlight unique features in the house - hardwood floors, any original hardware, etc. Also, most older Houston homes are not level; it's a relatively easy repair and not sufficient reason for demolishing an otherwise livable house.
