St. Roch 3BR
Asking price: $225,000
Size: 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1,334 square feet

Central City Duplex
Asking price: $175,000
Size: A duplex with a total of 6 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, 2,215 square feet
The skinny: The inside currently has gross carpet, ugly brown walls and tile, but the rooms are spacious. We think it has potential.

The skinny: Out of all the homes on the list, this one's in the worst condition.
