Home For Sale For $150K In Grand Junction, Colorado

This home at 1737 Palisade Street in Grand Junction, Colorado just hit the market in early March 2023. At the list price of $150,000, it won't be on the market long. It's a bit surprising an investor hasn't picked it up already.

The listing at Realtor.com describes the home as:

• one bed

• 77 square foot bedroom
• wood stove
• 8,712 square foot lot

This May Be Just Perfect

There is such a thing as owning "too much house." If the expense doesn't get you, the upkeep will. This home has a kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and small office space. If you're a single person, what more do you really need?

Yes, it will need some work. Guess what? That can be some of the fun. If you possess skills when it comes to light carpentry, landscaping, and general maintenance, a little sweat equity may reap great benefits.

Cost Of Living

Property costs and rent have gone through the roof. It's a miracle anyone can afford any place to live these days. How much would it cost you each month to live in this house?

Let's say for a moment you put $25,000 down and mortgaged the remaining $125,000. Using the Google Mortgage Calculator, your monthly mortgage payment on a 30-year fixed at 7.5% would come to $879.00.

While that's anything but cheap, it may very well be the best deal in town. Given the incredible potential of the land this house occupies, this may prove to be a wise investment.

Hey, Waylon, What Do You Care?

The unbelievably high cost of real estate has me so mad I could squeeze a grape. How are people supposed to live? It was bad enough when I was trying to buy my first home in Grand Junction. Back then, a new home in this same neighborhood would have cost you $90,000.
