Calling all investors, developers, builders, Airbnb investors—and homeowners who aren't afraid of a renovation. 👀
If you want to be minutes from Downtown Fort Worth, Panther Island, the Trinity River, and the Rock Island/Samuels area, this one deserves a look.
Built in 1945 and owned by the same family since it was built, this home has more than 2,100 sq. ft. sitting on approximately 7,800 sq. ft. of land—with a legal description that includes THREE original platted lots.
The house needs work. It needs central HVAC, updating, and renovation. But that's also where the opportunity starts.
FIX IT. LIVE IN IT. HOLD IT.
🏚️ FIX IT: Renovate it and resell it. The comps show a pretty significant difference between homes in this area that need renovation and those that have already been updated.
🏡 LIVE IN IT: Buy more than 2,100 sq. ft. this close to Downtown Fort Worth, renovate it your way, and potentially create equity instead of paying the premium for someone else's remodel.
🏗️ HOLD IT: Renovate it, rent it, and take the long view on the land and what's happening around this part of Fort Worth.
And THAT'S where this property gets especially interesting.
Panther Island and the surrounding central-city area are the focus of major long-term investment involving new residences, multifamily and mixed-use development, dining, entertainment, trails, waterfront areas, and improved connections between Downtown, Northside, and the Stockyards.
And those three original platted lots? There's a story there, too.
Current zoning does NOT mean you can simply divide this property and build three houses today. But for the right long-term investor or developer, there may be future possibilities worth investigating as this area continues to change.
💰 Priced to sell AS-IS at $225,000.
And apparently I'm not the only one who thinks this property is interesting.
The sign went in the yard Friday night, and I received about FOUR calls yesterday alone—before showings have even started.
Showings begin tomorrow, so consider this your sneak preview.
🎥 Watch the tour because I'm not just walking you through the house. I'm taking you through the surrounding area so you can see what's already been built, what's changing, and why I think the location is such an important part of this property's story.
Want to know what the comps are showing for after-repair value? Ask me.
Want to know more about the three original lots and the potential long-term possibilities? Definitely ask me.
And owner-occupants, don't automatically count yourself out. Talk to your lender about whether an FHA 203(k) or another renovation-loan option could work for you.
Now I want to know:
