A three-bedroom condo in Dayton, OH, that beckons buyers to flex their “HGTV designer muscle,” despite looking more like a property from an episode of A&E’s “Hoarders,” is the week’s most popular home on Realtor.com®.
If you can see past the horrifying piles of personal belongings, baskets of laundry, and stained carpeting, the listing notes that the 1,200-square-foot unit is “designed for carefree living.”
While the chaotic condo does require “cosmetic upgrades,” the superlow asking price of $65,000 was designed for a brave bargain shopper.
Also grabbing attention this week were a $108 million villa on California‘s coast, a concrete castle in Florida, and an unexpected contemporary emerging from the Pennsylvania woods.
