What the listing record shows
The home was sold as-is and marketed to investors, with an offer deadline on a Wednesday evening. The listing described the list price as the starting price.
The original list price was $80,000 and the sold price was $157,075, as reported in the MLS record. The very low starting price accounts for the large percentage.
MLS shows a year built of 1900, which may be a placeholder, so it's left out of the facts table.
These details come from the public MLS listing. They're not everything that went into the sale, and the record doesn't say how many showings or offers there were, so we'll not claim any numbers there.
