I think for 45K you can do quite a bit better than a 500sqft 2/1 in a marginal area. Though contrary to alleghenyangel's claim, it is in fact in Mount Washington and not Allentown. Nonetheless, bear in mind that Allentown is not a nice place and it's only a couple blocks away. That would make me worry that the immediate area around this home could go the same way with enough of a nudge.

You probably could get a Victorian mansion in Allentown at that price (if there even is one). Question is, would you even want it for free much less for 45K.

Nice, is that the one that was $11,000?

If so, great find! Love brick anyways, and the fact you got the corner one, even a better bonus!
