I had the opportunity to tour one of theamazing buys available in Pittsburgh yesterday. It is an adorable house with lots of details and a panoramic view of the Pittsburgh skyline. Yinz should be coming here in droves to snatch up these deals. Part of me doesn't want to post this because I want this house to be available when I am ready to purchase another. I had looked at this house several years ago, but a developer had bought it. Now the developer has their hands full and wants to unload this one at the amazing price of $15,000.

Of course it needs work. My best guess is $5,000-$8,000 for a bathroom, $4,000 for a furnace and your good to go. The rest can be done as you live there... like wiring, etc. It's a wood frame house so insulating is easy. Of course, to make it great, there's at least a $50,000 investment on top of the $15,000 purchase price, but where else can you get a house with details and a view like this for even $65,000. (The developer planned to market it for $250,000 if they did the redevelopment.) Each of the two main floors has three rooms. The back side of the basement is exposed and allows for one or two useable rooms down there. One is paneled floor to ceiling. Three of the rooms have panoramic city views. The house comes with a side lot that would allow for a deck with a city view and parking.

Anyway, I've posted pictures at EastAllegheny Yahoo Group You will need to join the group and click on PHOTOS and then Dunloe Street. You can set it so you won't receive emails if you like. You can also call (412) 321-1204 if you have questions or want a tour.
