735 Grove Ave in Johnstown is a large 3-bed, 2-bath home with almost 2,500 sqft, listed at $60K. That’s just $24 per square foot, way below the neighborhood’s average comp price per sqft of $91. However, comps in the area are selling for much higher prices, but they also tend to have larger lot sizes and might be in better shape. The home has some charming features—woodwork, stained glass, new roof/windows—but needs some finishing work.
If you’re an investor thinking about flipping, you’ll want to budget carefully for renovations. The low price gives you room to add value, but the neighborhood doesn’t support high resale prices and demand may be soft. For homeowners, focus on easy cosmetic upgrades—paint, flooring, curb appeal—to attract buyers. Don’t dump money into major overhauls unless you get a great deal on labor and materials.
