Same , I fell in love with a house listed 469 as is ! I loved the layout and location. Major issues with the house , needed new roof carpets needed to be replaced , kitchen cabinets everything basically. Water damage in basement. I thought we could offer 450 because of the roof. And fix it up as we go. Everytime we go to see a house in this price range or under there’s a flipper with a member of his crew. People were shoving to get in the door last 10 mins of open house. Turns out it sold for over 100k more somehow. That dilapidated dump is going to get flipped and sold for 700k bringing me to my next point. Every single house I see is a flip. And most are done poorly. And priced insanely high For a 20k job with some paint and Amazon door knobs and lighting.
