Another Rochester, Ny. We just bought a 1928 colonial, all hardwood 1/3 acre completely updated and full of personality. We paid $93,000 on an appraised value of $80,000. We paid this because of the location. In two months the fast ferry starts service less than a mile from us, and the property values have already gone up due to this.
Our house is the oldest for three blocks in any direction and completely stands out. We paid more for the eclectic value we percieved, and the expected increase in value for the area.
The taxes in NY definately suck though.
Stats 1500 sq.ft.
