Wild Deal On 85th St S $35,000 to $222,000

I wanted to share a quick story from the local real estate market that shows just how active things are right now!

I recently represented the sale of 513 85th St S—an investment property sold completely as-is for $35,000. Because demand is so high across our area, we ended up with multiple offers right out of the gate.

What makes this deal so interesting is the potential: top renovated comps on that exact street are going for up to $222,000. This comparable is bigger but it tells us the market is good and the one I just sold should sell for $180,000 to $200,000 if done right!

Why this matters to you:

  • If you’re an investor: Deep value-add opportunities with this kind of margin are still out there, and buyer demand for finished products is strong.

  • If you’re a homeowner: Local equity and demand are continuing to build, even for properties that need full renovations.

Whether you’re looking to buy your next project, list an existing property for top dollar, or just curious about what your own home is worth today, I’m always here as a resource.
