It looks like a real house in Akron Ohio. Price is $1,400. Estimated payments (with $280 down) is $6.71.
WTF? Is this a typo? Does it sit on an ancient indian burial ground? Were any John Denver Christmas specials filmed there?
How can this be?
Ask Samclem. PS, have you ever been to Akron? 
Typo?
Well Zillow has a different house listed at that location (at least from the picture), which recently sold for $252,000. I checked both maps and they are the same location. So I’ll say there’s something wrong with your above link.
The picture actually looks more like the house next door, which is still worth $235,000.
On realtor.com it has the property listed as a rental.
Maybe it’s just the house? When my old high school put through a shady deal to buy up some of the surrounding land, they were selling the houses off it for very cheap - 1920’s Craftsman bungalow, yours cheap if you’ll move it!
It certainly seems to be just a typing error on the part of whoever entered the house into the database. You can see from the link in stpauler’s post that it was intended to be rented for $1,400 per month. Someone mistakenly entered it into a database as being sold for $1,400. That’s why the link in the OP says that it’s selling for that price.
Damn odd all in all.
A mistaken entry in a database is odd? Please let me move into the utopia you inhabit! 
I am in Saudi Arabia, a nation where the streets are never clogged with snow and no jury would wrongfully convict a person.
I think it’s either a hoax or a typo. There’s no realistic way an agent in Broadview Heights would be representing a house in Akron 44313; it’s too far away. Also, the Revere School District alone would make the rent more than that even if it’s a falling-down shack; as a sale, someone would pay far more just as a teardown. I can’t do it tonight, but possibly tomorrow if you don’t have an answer, I could drive by.
Do not trouble yourself. Akron was listed (somewhere) as a Best Place to Live when you weight housing prices very heavily. So I just took a look and found this one. It must be a typo.
You lookin’ to move there if you ever get back to the US? 
No, I am aiming for someplace in the mountains. Someplace the doctors can lie to me in Spanish.
Maybe it’s being sold as-is and there is some problem with it that will cost thousands to fix?
Foundation is trashed? It’s sitting on a hazordous substance that will cost big bucks to clean up? The backyard is on a hill side which is eroding and the house will slide down it within the next couple years?
I doubt it. The land itself has to be worth more than $1400. Furthermore, all houses being sold “as is” have to state that clearly in the listing, along with any major problems and any troubles with showing it (i.e. no electricity. Show during daylight hours only).
I can think of some horrific murders that were commited in Akron, as well as other mitigating factors. I’m pretty sure Jeffrey Dahmer’s boyhood home had a little more land around it, and it may have been 'dozed by now.
I think his boyhood home in West Allis WI still stands but the apartment building where he lived has been dozed.
Wonder if insurance covers that?
I’m guessing the person who listed it incorrectly in “for sale” when she was aiming for “rentals” will never do that again, after taking approximately 1.5 million calls for it.
