Buyers tend to become jaded when they see “Needs a little TLC,”  “diamond in the rough” or “handyman special,” because typically, these terms often translate into “falling down dump; bring bulldozer and dumpster to settlement table!”

This home in Fawn Lake Forest is in great shape – it’s solid, roomy, on a nice level lot with mature birch and evergreen trees, has a roomy deck and a screened porch in back.  There are two full bathrooms, a brick faced fireplace, and newer replacement windows.  The driveway is paved and offers ample parking as well.

What it needs is a new kitchen (which can actually be inexpensively – check out the kitchens for sale at Honesdale’s Green Demolitions.  Do your part for charity and the environment at one time!)

Some light colored paint in fashionable colors will have this home “popping” in no time!

New Berber carpet  or laminate flooring would really brighten the space….but the existing carpet is in good enough condition to rate “low” on the priority list of projects to be completed.

This is a terrific home for the price – and with some vision and a little bit of labor, you can take this cute house and make it your very own, suited to your own tastes and preferences.

This is a great project for part-time handymen and first time home buyers.   Now is the time to invest – while interest rates are low.  Higher rates in the future will cause higher monthly payments.  Get it now and keep costs down!
