Description

**HIGHEST & BEST- SATURDAY, MAY 2nd @ NOON**Prime East Mountain investment opportunity with strong upside potential. This property has been fully taken down to the studs following significant water damage, offering a true blank slate for investors, flippers, or contractors ready to rebuild and maximize value.Previously configured as a 3-bedroom home, the layout remains intact with key components still in place, including 200+ amp electrical service and ductless mini-split systems. Located in a desirable East Mountain neighborhood, this is a compelling value-add opportunity with projected ARV estimated in the mid to upper $200,000s depending on finishes. Ideal for a fix-and-flip or long-term hold strategy.A rare chance to step directly into the rebuild phase and bring new life to a property in a high-demand area.
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources. This description is from May 23, 2026
