Buy a handyman special


Handyman specials or fixer uppers offer the chance to buy a home in need of repairs often at a price lower than normal. If you are an individual or investor that is not afraid of little or lots of work, a handyman special may be perfect for you.

Handyman specials will often not qualify for normal financing so if you are looking to purchase one, make sure you have cash available or have lined up financing suitable for this type of transaction.

The current housing inventory includes numerous homes being sold as a fixer upper or handyman special.

The Central Florida cities with the largest selection of homes include:


  1. Orlando 262

  2. Deltona 63

  3. Kissimmee 52

  4. Deland 33

  5. Winter Park 31

  6. Apopka 30

  7. Sanford 30

  8. Saint Cloud 26

  9. Clermont 21

For specific information about an area or work needed in a home give me a call.
