Columbus HUD Homes

Just a few days ago I still mentioned that 5971 Nike Drive in Hilliard would be ready for low offers. Here we go! HUD accepted a bid of $126,000, with $120,000 net to HUD. That’s 75% of asking price (which also happens to be the appraised value.)
 
HUD is ready to deal on relists and daily deadline properties. So don’t delay and make your offer!
 
Many other Columbus houses we featured in this newsletter are in contract, some quite below asking price. Somewhat surprisingly, the HUD home on 1750 Bluhm Rd sold for $65,000. That’s a full $17,000 (or 35%) above list price. I am not sure what enticed the buyer to bid over that much, but it would have been a great deal for $48K.

One more thing I noticed when I looked at today’s relisted properties: bids on Columbus HUD Homes that are higher than the list price fall out of contract frequently. The home on 4507 Tolbert Ave in Grove City is a good example. HUD had it in contract for $121,000. Now it’s listed again for the 3rd time (!) at the appraised value of $100,000.
