South Bend Central Development Area <br />(1) Staff Report on Disposition of Property (620 S. Columbia) <br />Mr. Relos noted that this is the remaining property of five Monroe Park HDC houses that <br />went through the disposition process in June 2011, and were listed for sale in September <br />2011. <br />This particular property is a two story, 1,174 square foot house. It has been converted into <br />two apartments, with the stairway between the floors removed. There is no inside basement <br />access. Both factors make it very difficult to sell to an owner occupant. The average <br />appraised value of the property was determined to be $17,000. <br />The previous four houses sold had appraised values of $15,500 to $27,000 with an average <br />appraised value of $21,250. Two of these four were sold for $5,000, one for $8,000, and one <br />for $10,000. <br />
