Depending upon the price I know contractors that would jump on something like that in my market Peter Mohylsky, Destin BeachPro . Is the Seller willing to play ball or do they have unreasonable expectations?

My list of investors love homes like that! I'll sell them all day long.
They won't get top dollar structurally but they will for the lot and potential.

Market to the target audience ... not sure I would use the term "tear down" or "uck".

List it as vacant land and say value is in the land. Maybe mom will want to buy, lol:) Katina

I am constantly solicited by those looking for fixers. Talk to area agents and find such a buyer.

A tear down speaks to developers, contractors and do it yourself-ers with an occasional flipper who knows what they are doing & can do it. I have remodeled, built new & managed. Its not for everyone. The main factor that your question asks? THE MATH! If the city, fees, & market plus know-how doesn't add up, stay away...pass & dream on. Here's another point worth considering too i.e. there is a buyer for everything. Time & money interfere

The lot to build on and the overall potential is there for the right buyer. But it has to be priced well as others have said. I wouldn't say UCK in the listing. That's a value judgement.

Tear downs are common in some of the communities in the DC suburbs in Maryland.

The fact there is a house there can grandfather you in....on a gravel road and what a location. What are the many pluses. Handyman special! 

That's a builder's dream if it's a good lot!

It takes a special kind of investor for that.  Most flippers won't touch a tear down, too much work and they take too long.  I do know of one out here who would do that, but it depends greatly on the location.  We had an off-market land deal that we referred to him earlier this year, but he passed on the location.

P.S.  You may want to make this private.  I don't know if your clients would like this if they found it in the google.

We see them here. It depends on the location and the demand.

Been doing it here for years & I think it uplifts the neighborhood.

This group likely sees a "tear down" house as a property with potential for redevelopment rather than renovation. Your latest listing, with its unattractive interior and less-than-ideal layout, might appeal to investors or buyers looking to build a new home in a desirable location near the bay. Emphasizing the value of the lot and the potential for a custom-built dream home could attract the right audience.

What are the mandates in your county to rebuild above sea level and what is the cost involved.  Here is SE FL these types of projects occur all day long.  Contractors build back bigger, better and more amenities to live waterfront or a block away.  Insurance can also be reduced with all the bells and whistles.😎

A small custom builder will salivate if it is priced right. 

I would think that would appeal to a developer big-time.  Marketed toward those builders, and priced accordingly (that's the most important part), if it's a good buildable lot, I would think you would be more popular than the Beatles in the 60's.

Market it to contractors.  They love this stuff.  I'd even list it as a fixer and not try to disguise that fact.

"Price fixes everything"...

I recently had a discussion with a realtor friend who ran a similar scenario by me and those are some of the comments I shared in hopes of turning a negative view point into a positive one.

What you see as uck others might see as $$$$ signs. It's all a matter of perspective and presentation.

Location is in your/their favor but before listing/selling need to research code requirements in that city. I have seen older homes and commercial buildings leveled and rebuilt because the cost to rehab and bring it up to code would be prohibitive so it was cheaper to demo and rebuild.

A total tear down may not be needed if the exterior is in decent shape (not stick built, meets code, etc). and may be cheaper and easier to do a partial teardown and gut interior then remodel vs new built.

As an aside, if it is a true tear down, consult your local fire department before demo. They love to use abandoned homes/buildings to train and hone their skills so there's that also.

Depends. Make sure you can build again after tear down. Some places will not issue building permits for new construction. But they will issue permits for remodeling or additions, and sometimes require a certain % of old structure remain standing and be incorporated into the new construction.

Good opportunity for a builder/investor.

Highest and best use, something that the new owner gets go decide.
