Watch some HGTV and you'll get an idea. It's mostly up to what you feel needs to be done. Could be $50K if you're talking kitchen reno plus new paint and flooring, you could also spend $125K if you want bathrooms redone and some walls taken down to make it open concept on top of that.
BTW, all that wallboard ripped out in the basement means it flooded. Most likely in 2013 and they never refinished after the mitigation. Could come with foundation issues and mold in the walls, as a result. Don't waive the inspection.
This underpriced too?

Simply put, it's stupidly overpriced like the rest of Boulder. Amazing how much people will pay thru hype. One day, sooner than later, they will collapse bigtime. Wait for it;)
Maybe so, but bums in this area have been saying this same thing for the last 20+ years until they give up and move away. Throughout the area there seems to be quite a bit of trustafarian type wealth so many of them seem to not be as sensitive to interest rate changes as other areas. Back in the 2008 housing crash, many starter homes in Boulder (the city, not Boulder County) barely went down at all, maybe temporarily dropped 5% at most in value. It’ll probably calm down a lot in the spring and next year though with fewer bidding wars but not expecting a crash
Jamin’s not going to like the politics of Boulder County. Douglas or El Paso County would be a better choice

$700/sq ft is not underpriced. It is a big apartment with tiny one car garage.
I am constantly blown away by these absurd housing prices and am always curious- what do the young people do for careers that afford these types of houses?? are they using and spending l their money on a mortgage??
buying a million dollar house in your mid 20s/early 30s seems crazy. Do people in boulder really make double what people in the Midwest make??
and these people Buying these houses know you can go to practically anywhere in the Midwest and buy that same house on a much bigger lot for 300K and save 700K???
But the great microbrew ales! The opportunity to join Boulder Underground and get shouts out on socials! The sheer number of types of therapy and practitioners to help solve any self-created problem! The running trails and tracks where you can "bump into" Team Boss and thirst after the fantasy!
Actually, his doormat personality would be a perfect fit for your prototypical neurotic elite amateur female runner. You can't lob a Maurten gel in Boulder without hitting one. It's a pretty common pairing.

Or you may bump into Elon Musk’s brother Kimbal
You could much better for a million
No.
$900,000 for a shotgun house like this?
You get these a little older for $30,000 in other parts of the country.

...Colorado Springs might be better than Boulder for you, though.
Forgetting price for a minute, Boulder is much better than Colorado Springs. Colorado Springs is big, has a lot, nice views, etc.. But Boulder is an awesome "fish bowl" (compliment), and much more of a community and even small town feel.
Gosh look at this 1100-sqft house just sold in Boulder for $1.46M after being listed for $1.15M

Right on cue...
$380/mo HOA fees? NO THANKS!

Exactly, WTF does $380/month HOA fee pay for on a mediocre detached house like that? It's not like you get an indoor pool, gym, and golf course access living there. That's why it's "underpriced" per s.f. in Boulder.
