Now what improvements have been done to the home? They essentially touched just about every wall, floor, & fixture in the home. They reconfigured the two smaller bedrooms as one very large master bedroom, re-added the third bedroom into the lower level, added a full bathroom in the lower level, carpeting throughout, tile (kitchen & baths) and laminate (dining & hallway) flooring, light fixtures, added a lower level bar, landscaping, new paint, etc.

Now, would an offer of $135,000 be out of the question? I really can not answer that for you directly in that regard. You, if as a serious buyer, were to put an offer on the home, I’m sure the sellers would examine said offer and make a counter-offer if they felt it was warranted. Over the last year homes in the general Dubuque area have sold for 3.04% off list price. Some sell for 10% off, some a few point off, some full price, and even a few OVER list price.

If by “the basement was awful” I assume you are talking about the now-removed Chicago Bears theme. While that fully served the likes of the sellers, perhaps a Packers or Vikings fan would object. It’s now gone, we’ve painted the entire family room area in a neutral tan color. Level yard(s) in Dubuque? When you find one, let me know about it (just kidding, had to say that).

I hope I answered your questions as best as I can. If you would want further information don’t hesitate to contact me directly, see the Contact Rob… button above, thanks.
