Extreme_Makeover_Foreclosure The Extreme Home Makeover Foreclosure home in Lake City, Georgia has been given a reprieve from the auction block for 30 days. As we previously reported the homeowners financed the home for 450,000 dollars and have since gone into foreclosure.

The bank has given the couple 30 days to find a buyer, but realistically unless a good Samaritan comes forward, it is very unlikely to sell. The home, while nice, is overbuilt for the neighborhood. That is the curse of the Extreme Makeover homes, they do not fit the communities they are in.

If the families that get this lavish gift live there is a great benefit. But when the time comes to sell, they will never get what the home is worth if built elsewhere. That old adage comes to mind; location, location, location.

But the whole idea of the home was never to be a piggy bank like the Clayton County family used there gift as. They instead created a mess and now have to face the consequences.

The home was listed with ReMax — with an asking price of $950,000 — until the listing expired a few weeks ago. Max Chavez, a ReMax associate broker who listed the home for the Harpers, said it appeared the Harpers were still interested in selling the home when the listing expired.

“I’m hoping that they’ll re-list the property with me,” he said. Their house wouldn’t be the first “Extreme Makeover” to be sold. Extreme Makeover homes in Idaho and New Jersey were also put on the market earlier this year.
