My Foreclosure pick of the week is in Rockcreek area south of Colorado Springs on 2220 Paseo Corto.
It is a single family home and includes over 2500 square feet, with 3 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a 2 car attached garage; as well as a detached 2 car garage. The detached garage doesn’t have a floor or a door; it’s more of a metal enclosure set on the ground than a true garage. The property was built in 1980; and was originally sold for $264,500 in 2003The upsides….. 3 acre lot, beautiful trees and scrub oak on the lot. The house does need some work, which is very typical for a bank owned property.
The downsides ….. very close to Highway 115; you can definitely hear the traffic noise.
The description in the MLS Says: “Unbelievable property with fabulous mountain views. Large property includes a 1000 sq. ft. garage. Home offers hardwood and slate flooring, enclosed back porch. Minutes to Ft. Carson.”
The El Paso County Assessor’s office has it valued at 307,338. At the current list price of $319,900, it may be priced a little over market value, especially considering it is so close to the Highway. There are 14 other properties in the area, priced from $119,900 to $899,900. During the last 6 months, only 2 properties have sold in the same area, ranging from $259,900 to $420,000.
