Houston flood home that would not sell - exit strategy ALF
Hello,
I have a house that was flooded in Harvey (Aug. 2017) for the first time (to my knowledge as I bought it from a wholesaler with no disclosure) .
The house is one story with three bedrooms (one of them is a master suite) with a very reasonable living space and backyard.
I rehabbed the house and it looks great now, ....nobody would buy it :0(
The house is near the medical center in Houston (in a subdivision called parkwest near Westbury)
If I rent it it will create a -ve cash flow of about $300
I'm thinking to turn it into Senior independent living but it seems to be very complicated strategy with the best yield.
Any experience in doing this in Houston would e appreciated?
Cheers,

What's the address? Can you provide pics of the property? If it's not selling (even in a flooded area) it's most likely an issue of price if there's no serious defects in the renovation.
