[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think they both are a pass. What about this one and do a few cosmetic updates: https://www.redfin.com/VA/Mc-Lean/1064-Silent-Ridge-Ct-22102/home/9843813[/quote] That one has good bones, but updating could be expensive depending on how far you want to take it [/quote] How do you know? 2003 building code is not as stringent as 2024 so the bones are not good. I also see a lot of builder grade stuff like generic subway tile not going up to the ceiling. Kitchen only has one island and the house feels small. The outside brick and interior is very dated a lot of money to update, the size of the home is at least 2000sf smaller than the new homes and the price isn't much lower. The only thing i like is the pool and backyard. Sorry it's a no from me dawg.

The original annd current owners overpaid for this house. They paid $2.3M in 2003, sold it in 2005 for $3M to the current owners. The current owners will be lucky to get $3.9M and as crazy as it sounds, $1M is a pretty poor return over 20 years for this zip code. [/quote]
