491 W. 200 S. Provo - Before

Due to foreclosure, this home was recently listed for $75k. The listing states that it is 2 bed/1 bath and is 926 square feet; however, there is additional square footage in the form of an attached dining area that does not have heat and is therefore not counted as living space. If this were to be updated, the square footage of the home would increase accordingly.

The exterior of the home is brick and stucco while the later addition is wood. There is shake roofing as well as some updated roofing (again, on the addition) that will need repair or replacement. Necessary updates include HVAC and electrical. This home features some updated vinyl windows, with six older or broken windows that need to be replaced and five exterior doors that will need to be replaced as well.

The home is listed as 2 bedrooms, although a simple addition of a closet to another room will change the classification to a 3 bedroom property. The interior of this home has carpet and tile throughout, as well as orange-peel texture and some smooth texture. The tile needs some repair and all carpet will need to be replaced; while there is some damage to the walls throughout, only minor repairs are needed.

The kitchen boasts newer cabinetry and countertop that is functional if the home were to be held as a rental property, but that would benefit from replacement. The adjacent dining room addition offers extra space and seating capability if it were to be updated and inclusive of heating capability.
