About 423 E Hillside Ave

Don't miss this refreshed southside home that sits directly across from Frank Talarico Park, offering peaceful green space views and a place to play or relax right outside your front door. This home has had a lot of big-ticket updates already completed including new 200 amp electrical service, fully city-permitted ($10K upgrade), new water piping and water heater, fresh paint throughout, including trim, stairs, and doors, new decks (front and back), tuck-pointed foundation, and new roof on the front of the home. BONUS this home is located both an NFC and Invest DSM area, meaning this home qualifies for amazing programs to make even more updates. NFC Purchase Financing: Includes a $10,000 forgivable improvement loan, options to borrow more for upgrades, and down payment assistance for income-eligible buyers. Invest DSM Grants: Cover 20-50% of renovation costs (up to $75K) no income or credit limits, and many grants are fully forgiven in 5-7 years!
