7 Fixers Available Now In CA

CALIFORNIA — Since California homes began declining in value, there has been a big change in the advertised listings of available homes. Before the downturn, almost every home was modernized, professionally staged, and expertly photographed.

Now, many homes are being sold as-is, with buyers trying to beat further declines in prices rather than taking the time for contractor upgrades and staging. The result is many more homes that retain ceramic tile from the 70s, patterned linoleum decades out of style, and heavy drapery that was expensive when it was installed.

Here are seven homes that are available, all in need of some TLC.
