Georgetown, Texas Real Estate Blog      Your Host: Edward Lui

Tired of getting outbid on all those foreclosure properties?  Wasting too much time waiting for a short sale to close?  If you’re looking for a great deal, then 1019 Leeds Castle Walk at $115,000 ($47/sf) is one of the cheapest properties around and the best thing about it – it is not a distress sale.  No waiting + no bidding = high chance of purchasing with a 30-day close.

1019 Leeds Castle is 2,427 sf with 3 bedrooms (best bang for the buck as an investor) and 3 full bathrooms (perfect for homeowners who have frequent overnight guests, kids, or roommates).  The living room is open and has high ceilings so it’s great for large gatherings.  If you need something more private, the upstairs game room is even bigger and tucked away.

You’ll want to replace the carpet and put a fresh coat of paint on the walls before moving in, but that’s already accounted for in the low price.  That’s a positive because you get to choose the type of floor and color of paint.  The other positive is that it would cost about $5,000 to have it done professionally, but the seller decided to knock off $10,000 instead.  Meaning you could purchase this home, replace the carpet, paint the walls, and probably sell this for $125,000.

See below for more information, pictures, and video.  Act quickly!  This will not last long so give your Realtor a call to see it or contact me directly if you don’t already have one.

1019 Leeds Castle – Sellers Disclosure

Here’s what I think you’ll like about this home:

Backyard - Home faces West, so the backyard is shaded in the evening and is the perfect environment for grilling and relaxing. The owners take advantage of where the sun is and have built a private garden on the side of the home next to the walking path. Rather then an ugly slab of concrete, the owners opted for a much more natural material, using gravel to form the surface of this patio. No large 2 story directly behind this home, for a much better sense of privacy.

Floorplan – The living room has soaring ceilings (at least 12 feet) and is ideal for furniture placement. Two bedrooms are on the first floor including the Master bedroom. This is convenient for guests or if the next buyer has a small child they want to keep close. This also give you the versatility of having elderly parents live with you and not have to climb stairs. There is a dedicated full bathroom for this second bedroom. The third bedroom is on the top floor and also has access to a full bath. This third bedroom is very large and can be considered a second Master bedroom.

Gameroom – This extra living space is critical to families these days who have such a wide variety of needs. This bonus room is so large you can split it up for multiple uses like the current owner has done. They use one half for a study and the other half for a hobby room. There is even a neat alcove that can be used as a child’s homework area, a TV nook or a small library.
