About this home

Opportunity is knocking on James Ave N! Priced at $175,000, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath home sits on a full basement with a 2-car garage — a solid foundation for building equity in a neighborhood that's steadily on the rise. Hardwood floors run through the main level, and key mechanicals (furnace, A/C, and water heater) were all updated between 2015-2017, giving you a head start on the big-ticket items. Sold As-Is, this is a great fit for a buyer ready to add sweat equity or an investor looking for their next project. Minutes to Webber Park, Creekview Park, North Mississippi Regional Park's river trails, and the Lowry Ave dining corridor. Bring your vision — this one's ready to work for you.

How SODL buyer credits work

When you buy with SODL, the brokerage charges a flat $3,000 platform fee at closing. The remaining buyer-side commission (typically 3% of the purchase price) is credited directly back to you at closing, reducing the cash you bring to the table.

  • Tour homes with SODL’s flexible showing network
  • Submit offers and manage your transaction through the platform
  • Keep more money at closing through transparent flat-fee pricing

A clear, modern way to buy with expert guidance and meaningful savings.
