FDotD- 756 Cherwell Ct. Redding 96003 ’82 2,482 Sqft 3/3 Just $104,900 February 22, 2012Wow, this one is priced aggressively! A big cul de sac view home located in a terrific neighborhood. It seems to be missing a few more fixtures than just doorknobs. Still, this is an attractive price for a valuable home that could be easily restored. This home was last assessed at $243K, and a smaller […]
- 20262 River Valley Anderson 96007 ’73 1600 sqft 2/2 $109,900 February 21, 2012Today’s FDotD was most recently listed as a short sale in 2008, which eventually expired. We don’t know if it took 4 years to foreclose, although it wouldn’t surprise, but here it is listed as REO. Perhaps it lingered in shadow inventory for a few years. That wouldn’t surprise us either. In any event, you […]
- Debt forgiveness for Fannie and Freddie mortgagees? February 20, 2012“It’s a great question, Nick,” says Shaun Donovan, secretary of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, in this video from the Wall Street Journal. Will the government offer “principal reductions” to homeowners who have mortgages through Fannie and Freddie? If so, I want mine reduced. Everyone agrees it’s a good idea, it seems. […]
- 1930 Jewell Lane Redding 96001 Cul de sac w/Shop $95,000 February 20, 2012100 x 360 The white picket fence could use a refresh, but this one is interesting.

- 13750 Dusty Oaks Trail Bella Vista 96008 2,050 sqft 4/2 on 5 acres $110,000 February 18, 2012This foreclosure home in unincorporated Shasta County seems to offer a lot for the money.

- 2646 Alamo Anderson 96007 “Green” 4 plex $199,900 February 17, 2012Remember the Alamo! That’s what the former owner of this 4 plex is muttering. We love 4 plexes as investment vehicles.

We are given only this one image on which to base our buying decision, but there are many lovely images we can send […]
