Property Description
Great investment opportunity in Detroit’s Cornerstone Village neighborhood! This 3-bedroom, 1-bath home offers over 1,300 square feet and has tons of potential for the right investor. The property experienced fire damage and will need a full renovation, but it sits on a solid foundation and provides a great opportunity to add value. Features include a spacious floor plan and a large detached garage that was not affected by the fire. Located in an established neighborhood with many updated and well-maintained homes nearby, this property has strong upside for resale or rental income. Cash buyers only. Sold as-is. Buyer to verify all information (BATVAI).
