Deal next to a "trashy" house

Caleb Graham
Posted

Looking for my first-ever deal and I found a potential fixer-upper. The neighborhood is decent, nothing to write home about but pretty well maintained for the most part. The problem is, the house directly to the right of the one I'm looking at has trash and junk thrown about all over the yard. Looks pretty trashy and that worries me about finding potential tenants as well as future property values. The weird thing is that this is the nicest house in the whole neighborhood and would go for well over 400k. Anyway, I'm wondering if this should be an immediate no go or if it's still a deal to consider further?

Hi Caleb,

Have considered making an offer on the "trashy" house? You could possibly get a great deal here and kill two birds with one stone.
