Description

Great opportunity to gain instant equity in downtown Renton. Everything is dated, but in good condition. Live in it now and make improvements or this could be a great rental. Tax records say 600 square feet, but the attic space has been completed. Garage is in poor shape, but likely could be rebuilt. Investment or starter, you decide. Walk to downtown, Renton Stadium, elementary school, and high school. Home sold "as is".Great opportunity to gain instant equity in downtown Renton. Everything is dated, but in good condition.
