Abstract

StorageCafe says finding a home with good bones is not easy they say a lot of it depends on the location. To that end, they analyzed over 61k active single-family listings in the 50 biggest US cities to determine their list of best cities for fixer-uppers. They looked at several metrics, including price, number of active fixer-upper listings, home & lot sizes as well as self storage costs and inventory. Interestingly, they point out that fixer-uppers are generally smaller in size. Some key findings: Milwaukee and Philadelphia stand out as prime fixer-upper markets thanks to a combination of fixer-upper listings inventory, fixer-upper discounts and more. The most expensive homes in need of repairs are in CA's Tech Hubs: San Jose and San Francisco.
