Springs 411: Looking for a deal in real estate?

I can't tell you the number of times potential buyers have told me, "Let me know when a deal comes along and then I'll think about buying." Here's the truth - with the buyers market that we're currently experiencing, there are deals everywhere and most real estate investments that you'll make at this time are going to pay off in the long run. Obviously, that's not that case on everything and it's important to find yourself the world's best Realtor to make sure you're making a wise investment for the future. Of course, even an amazing Realtor can't be 100% sure, but we can certainly counsel you on your decision and provide crucial information to help you make an educated decision when buying a home.

All that said - here's a deal. A home that's ready for move in. Brand new paint and carpet in the basement, plus air conditioning already installed! The interior and exterior are in great shape, from the 3 year old roof to the carpet inside (plus, the original hardwood floors under the carpet if you want to go that route). Very cute covered porch/patio in backyard, as well as a large lot (9664 sq ft). Lots of upgrades too - vinyl windows, attic fan, plus all appliances are included in sale (including washer and dryer). If you're familiar with Colorado Springs, you know about the beautiful Memorial Park where the Colorado Springs Balloon Classic takes place, as well as the best fireworks show in the city on the Fourth of July. Here's the best part - you can watch these both from your living room window! This home is less than a mile from Memorial park, and less than 3 miles from downtown Colorado Springs. It's a phenomenal location....I know, I know, you want the price. I saved the best for last: $167,000 for this 2250 sq ft home. That's about $74/sq foot. I know, my jaw just hit the floor too. Yep...great deal.
