A well-kept brick ranch in College Park that needs paint and ideas, not a rebuild.
This 3-bedroom, 2-bath all-brick ranch has been lovingly maintained for years. Everything sits on one floor — 1,708 square feet with a living room, family room, dining room and kitchen — on a 0.28-acre lot in College Park, Pike Township, on the northwest side of Indianapolis.
It needs only cosmetic updates. A homebuyer can move in and build equity as they go. An investor can see the flip or the rental from the curb. The dishwasher, electric oven and refrigerator stay, and shopping, dining and entertainment are minutes away.

2751 Amherst Street auction FAQ
When is the 2751 Amherst Street auction?
Friday, November 27, 2026 (Black Friday) at 10:00 A.M. Eastern, live on-site at 2751 Amherst Street, Indianapolis, IN 46268, with online bidding at BidBurgess.com.
What is the opening bid?
Bidding opens at $150,000. The opening bid is not a reserve, appraisal or estimate of value. The sale is a seller confirmation auction: the seller accepts or declines the high bid immediately after bidding closes.
Is there a buyer's premium?
Yes. A 10% buyer's premium is added to the high bid to set the purchase price, for on-site and online bidders alike. For example, a $160,000 high bid makes a $176,000 purchase price.
How much earnest money is required and when is it due?
$5,000, non-refundable, held in escrow by Fidelity National Title. It is due by cashier's check at the auction or by wire to Fidelity no later than 5:00 P.M. Eastern on Monday, November 30, 2026.
When does the sale close?
Closing is within 30 days of the auction, on or before Monday, December 28, 2026, at Fidelity National Title. Possession is delivered at closing.
Can I use a mortgage to buy the house at auction?
You may use financing, but the purchase is not contingent on financing, appraisal or inspection. Arrange your loan and complete inspections before you bid.
Why is the seller's disclosure marked unknown?
The home is owned by the Estate of Joyce L. Armstrong. The personal representative never lived in the house, so every item on the disclosure form is marked unknown. The home is sold as-is, so inspect it before bidding.
Who pays the real estate taxes?
The seller has paid the November 2026 installment. The buyer pays the May 2027 installment and all taxes due after that. There is no proration.
Do real estate brokers get paid?
Yes. A 3% co-op on the high bid is paid to a licensed Indiana broker who registers the winning buyer by 5:00 P.M. Eastern on Wednesday, November 25, 2026, and the sale closes. See the Broker Participation Agreement.
How do I see the house before the auction?
Attend a scheduled open house or book a private showing with Jason Snider of J. Snider Real Estate at 317-507-1692.
