Thats a great area - looks very close to Farmingdale SD so I would check to make sure the SD is right (not that F'dale is bad, I went there, but Massapequa is better).

oh the area is nice, the house is crap. Housing prices need to come down, this is insane! That house probably needs at least $50k of renovations.

Re: Massapequa Cape $399. Great Potential
It's all original. Blech.
But if you bought it for $350 and put $100k of renovations into it you could have a $500K house.
A builder should probably buy it.

House is a great deal area is awesome...

$50K? more like $100K at least! 
ETA: I have to say - that is a fabulous area!

Re: Massapequa Cape $399. Great Potential
it needs alot of work- I wouldn't touch it
I was just playing around on MLS and you can get a much better deal then that-
I even found some good deals on water front property in Nassau- $500K or less

my DH says the same thing. he's not from here and is truly repulsed by a lot of the houses we've seen. the condition, the size, a/c sticking out of a wall. he's never lived anywhere that didn't have central air (and heat).
it's been tough looking at houses with him 
that's why I had to chuckle at the "do you feel guilty for living here" post. if DH saw that he would die laughing
 makes me wonder if we're really going to end up living here

That house is disgustingly dirty and why don't they at least pull up the carpet. I'm sure it has wood floors

I saw this house the other day and I wish we were ready to leave SI. With some major renovations it would be nice. DH and I laughed at the "bring your own decorating ideas" also. More like bring your own demolition crew

I can't believe people are selling a house at a price like that the way it looks. That's definately a handyman!

Don't forget, that's just *asking* price. A house is only worth what the seller is willing to pay for it...

We can't even afford a stinky house like that. We're never going to own a home.

We are actually going this weekend to look at a house selling for $399 in a different town that needs some work!
I'm not planning on offering $399 if we like it, but I would much rather pay less and update on my own, rather than pay more and have to live in someone else's decor!
