What’s The Problem With This 5 Year Old Westerville HUD House?

HUD offers truly remarkable Columbus houses for owner occupants.

Take a look at the 5 featured homes below and you will be impressed. These HUD homes contrast the old town charm of Bexley with suburban flair of subdivisions in Westerville, Groveport and Galloway.

The Bexley HUD house is an incredible value. You can see that the previous owner remodeled this HUD home. The comps in this area are $200K – so you can certainly buy it below market value.

If you prefer the suburbs, you have 4 HUD homes to choose from. The house in Westerville looks spectecular, except for one problem: it is located in the Columbus City school district. Despite all of the investment Columbus put in their school system and the significant improvement in graduation rates, it puts you in a disadvantage when you try to sell this home.

In many parts of Central Ohio school districts, mailing address and city services are different. You could live in the City of Columbus, but your subdivision is serviced by Westerville schools. Or the other way around, as is the case with the house on Course Drive.

As your real estate agent, I will certainly alert you, if this is the case. Don’t hesitate to ask your realtor. School districts are one of the most important selection criteria when it comes to buying a new home.
