Richfield House Hunt: Well Loved, Maintained Homes Ready For Sale

Richfield has a lot of short sale and bank owned homes on the market. A few are in good shape, but many are fixer-uppers or in need of cosmetic work. For buyers who just want to buy a home and move right in, there are a lot of choices as well.

Richfield has many homeowners who moved in years ago, stayed and took loving care of their houses throughout the years. If you are a buyer who doesn’t want to spend the summer months fixing up your newly bought home or wait weeks for a bank to respond to your purchase agreement, the following houses may fit the bill:
