Example: Lake found a brand new home in a great area that was foreclosed on the builder; it was appraised at $268,000 and the asking price had dropped to $34,000.†While it had been sitting vandals stripped out the wiring and plumbing so it needed about $20,000 for rehab costs.†Once restored, the property can be sold to a prescreened buyer for $190,000.
