Everyone likes a bargain, but that’s really just the start. This home sits on a convenient, wide open lot that is just steps away from Hamlin Park.

This is sort of an unusual deal, but one that makes total financial sense given the numbers quoted above. According to the mortgage calculator, the estimated monthly payment is $6,607 given 20% down on a 30-year loan with a 3.75% interest rate.
