Property Description
RARE FIND! 1.3 acres in 28401 with a 3668 sq ft, 7 bedroom, 2 bath home zoned B-1, which means you can live in it or run a business out of it, or both. NOT included in the sq feet is an additional 1,000 sq ft of unfinished attic space. The county has approved for the land to be divided into 3 lots, with the current home being on one lot zoned B-1, and two additional lots zoned R-15. Since the plat is not recorded yet, the plan can change, it would just need to be approved by the county. If you don't divide it, you have one of the last large beautiful lots in this zip code just minutes to downtown, 1/2 mile to the airport, and minutes to 3 bypasses. This home is close to Preservation Point, River Bluffs, Hanover Lakes, and three new neighborhoods being developed on Castle Hayne Road. You are not on top of your neighbor. You will be nestled into your own little oasis. If you want an investment, this home can be turned into a duplex, triplex or group home. Zoning does change, so please verify. The reason this spot is so special is because you have the feel of the county, but are close to the city. You are on septic and well. You have lots of options to build or just sit and wait until everything around you gets built up. With new rooftops come more restaurants and businesses. If you know the area, you know it is the next area to explode since there is barely any land left this close to downtown to build on. Go to zoning and check out all of the approved permits in this area. The airport is getting a hotel, and an entertainment center. There are two new gas stations scheduled to break ground in 2024, and apartments approved. Gem studios is a couple of miles away. This home would make a great one because you have a lot of options-Build on it, or use as an AirBNB, B&B, OFFICE, or HOME. The home is a diamond in the rough. The home has been priced at $182/sq ft, way under the comps. That price doesn't include two additional buildable lots 15,000-19,000 sq ft each. Fortunately, since the plat map has not been recorded, a builder can redesign it. The owners were thinking of selling off the lots, but will let the market tell them the highest and best use, so bring all ideas! The lot line goes all the way around the bend on Yorktown and ends by the horse farm. Lots marked with pink ribbons/iron markers based on approved proposal. This is an extraordinary home with major potential but if you want new construction, this is not it. There are cameras on site both inside and outside the home, so please schedule the showing and do not ride through the property.

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest. The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered. VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale. This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments. Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
