Older house with Sunken Master Bedroom !!

Mohammad Nur
Posted

I went to see a property last week. It's in an old and established neighborhood. Median price in that neighborhood is around 280 K. 

The house ( 3 bed 2 bath) needs some minor works and some cleanup and it should be ready to be rented. However, there was one thing that I couldn't see from MLS listings. The Master Bedroom is a sunken bedroom and need to go down two steps of stairs. As far as I could tell, there was no foundation issues but apparently back in the day Sunken Bedrooms were show stopper!!.

I was thinking about potential tripping hazard and future resale value impacts due to the sunken master bedroom. Should this be a potential deal killer ? What would you do ?
