Description/Comments

Lot Size:	--
Property Type:	Residential
Year Built:	1920
Notes:	Welcome home to 415 Furr Drive. You are now part of a tradition of care and love; where the owners before you have maintained the character, improved its condition, and have carefully curated modern amenities that seamlessly integrate into this historical property. Let the abundance of natural light transport you to an era where hardwood floors are still made of real hardwood, where the bathroom's pink and black tuxedo striped tiles are not just functional but a work of art, and where the arches between rooms are as much a part of the architecture as they are functionally beautiful. In 2021, current owners replaced the old oak post foundation with modern pier and beam (transferrable warranty available), modernized the house by adding central HVAC system and ductwork, repaired main sewer line with PCV pipes/new cleanout and new pipes under primary bathroom, updated electrical circuits for exterior and attic. New back fence added in 2019. In 2023 they professionally repainted the entire interior and repaired drywall as needed and added new pipes under kitchen and the washer drain. With over $60K in improvements, this home is a no-brainer for the buyer who is looking to escape the ordinary and truly wants to be part of a vibrant, culturally inclined, centrally located community. Enjoy everything Woodlawn Lake has to offer just a few blocks away: running trails, sports courts, pool, playgrounds, 4th of July fireworks, and a sense of community. Current owners enjoy a significant tax exemption due to historic designation (check with BCAD for re-application requirements). The structure in the back used to be a garage/workshop and is now used for storage, and the semi-finished attic provides even more storage for today's needs. With a large screened-in porch, enjoy entertaining while leaving the dining room/patio doors open. Monticello Park is one of San Antonio's most historic and artistic gems, and 415 Furr Dr is one of its beloved visual storybooks.

HUD Foreclosures

HUD foreclosures and VA Foreclosures are some of the best homes to buy when price is part of the equation. As with most Americans, price is always a concern. If not buying the same house for less, why not buy more house for the same dollar invested? When looking for a good deal it is hard to do better than the VA or HUD foreclosures market. The simple truth is that there are just more VA and HUD homes on the market, as they represent such a large number of mortgages that are generated each year. This translates into more foreclosures just by the magnitude of difference between all others comparing to the two largest.

The two largest also being government owned and operated means that they have less time to wait to make money back on the home. The FHA is especially known for selling HUD homes for less than the average sales price in a given area. FHA foreclosures represent a fraction of HUD but they are still a significant number of homes and both should be considered.

VA (Veterans Administration) and HUD (Housing and Urban Development) have different and unique opportunities for the buyer. Both are often forgiven for the local taxes normally associated with the purchase of a home (this is on a county by county basis). Be sure to ask the local title company or escrow company to look into it for you before closing as this is often missed due to their are not used to dealing with the 2 to 3 percent of the market that VA and HUD foreclosures represent.

Foreclosure Listings Increasing

As the market settled after the mortgage meltdown foreclosure listings also settled and fewer homes were on the market with a placard reading “Bank Foreclosure” in big red lettering. This was a good thing for the entire real estate market. Having an abundance of foreclosures brings the entire market down and it makes it harder for home owners, who would like to move, to get the appropriate price for their home as a similar home down the same street was sold for substantially less and the appraiser is using the foreclosure as a comparable sale.

This is just one of the problems when there are too many foreclosure listings in any area. Another issue is the television set that sits in everyone’s living room harping about the price of homes based on the number of foreclosures and this constant barrage of negative information makes most people sit on the sidelines waiting for the market to either implode completely or to correct itself. Meanwhile while they wait, others are buying foreclosure listings and making great investments.

Whatever the reason, a market can only handle so many foreclosure listings at any given time. The more foreclosures, the lower the market gets and this is a lesson the banks that were foreclosing and selling off realized too late. The market and their investments would have been better off if there had not been a rush to divest themselves of the toxic assets made more toxic by their own actions.
