So, we own 2 pieces of property. We have a house that sits on 2 lots in a very desirable area. We have people coming to our door and also mailing us letters asking us to sell our extra lot. Problem is, the house has an addition that extends slightly over onto the other lot. The house is old. My parents built it in the 50s. It needs a lot of updating. The worst part is the basement. Block foundations. Ugh. Damp damp damp.
The other property is 15 acres out in the county. Perfect for a new build.
So recently I’ve been looking around at our house and feeling overwhelmed. There is so much that needs to be done. I think we could build a nice little ranch style house on our other property that would suite our needs very well. The problem is, I’m not really sure how to go about finding a buyer for our house and extra lot. I don’t think listing it with a realtor will get us the price we think it’s worth. I think someone might be interested in buying and tearing the house down, as sad as that makes me, and building 2 new houses in its place.
So how might I go about marketing my property to maximize my ROI? Anyone out there have any experience with this?
