This is dated, source-linked general education. Citations identify what public sources state; they are not endorsement, partnership, certification, or independent confirmation of every third-party assertion. This is not brokerage, appraisal, investment, lending, tax, legal, zoning, licensing, inspection, or individualized professional advice. Verify the current listing, parcel, condition, lawful use, permits, title, insurance, flood exposure, and your own facts with the controlling sources and qualified professionals before any consequential action. Use at your own discretion and risk.

Top ZIPs watched
- 40214: required South Louisville/Iroquois anchor; current public detail for Dingle Dell includes 2,136 total square feet, a partial basement, and public flood-risk flags.
- 40216: west/southwest workforce-access watch; Donald is a current public listing with a recent update and seller-reported renovation claims.
- 40258: southwest affordability and land-size watch; Daisy combines a low public ask with a 0.76-acre lot, but its future-build/separate-sale language is unverified.
- 40272: Valley Station/PRP watch; Thunder is pending and therefore not an open candidate for a fresh showing request.
- 40215: central/south Louisville lower-price watch; Glendale is contingent and only 700 square feet, with restoration risk still material.

Good-Buy walk-back
Educational formula: conservative exit/use value × 79.5% − repairs − carrying/closing allowance − reserve. Stress case: reduce exit/use value by 10% and raise repairs by 25%. These are screening assumptions, not appraisals, valuations, offers, or expected returns.
| Candidate | Scenario assumptions | Scenario ceiling | Stress ceiling | Why it remains Watch/Reject |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7723 Dingle Dell | Exit/use $260,000; repairs $25,000; carry/closing $12,000; reserve $18,000 | $151,700 | $124,780 | Large public ask gap; seller-reported updates, basement condition, permits, title, insurance, and flood exposure require verification. |
| 3222 Donald | Exit/use $205,000; repairs $15,000; carry/closing $10,000; reserve $15,000 | $122,975 | $102,928 | Seller-reported full remodel and new systems are not independently verified; 986 sqft limits school-use capacity. |
| 6903 Daisy | Exit/use $185,000; repairs $25,000; carry/closing $9,000; reserve $15,000 | $98,075 | $77,118 | Small 825 sqft structure; future-build/separate-sale and dual-sewer language need parcel, zoning, utility, and legal verification. |
| 11107 Thunder | Exit/use $190,000; repairs $25,000; carry/closing $10,000; reserve $15,000 | $101,050 | $79,695 | Public detail says Pending; no fresh outreach or showing request authorized by this run. |
| 3431 Glendale | Exit/use $125,000; repairs $35,000; carry/closing $8,000; reserve $12,000 | $44,375 | $25,688 | Public detail says Contingent; 700 sqft and investor/restoration language leave capacity and repair ambiguity high. |
Minimum diligence before any human action
- Recheck the current public status, exact parcel identity, listing history, and whether the public detail is still controlling.
- Independently verify condition, systems, basement/crawl-space status, permits, code history, taxes, title/liens, insurance, flood exposure, zoning/use, parking, accessibility, utilities, and occupancy rights.
- For any school use, separately verify licensing, certificate/occupancy, fire/life-safety, sanitation, equipment, insurance, and local approval requirements.
- Keep any showing, realtor contact, inspection, contractor, title, lender, lease, financing, offer, and purchase decision human-controlled.
School-expansion scan
Goodwill West Louisville Learning Center — conditional public-workshop bridge
Goodwill’s public room page lists meeting rooms at 2820 West Broadway with capacities from 40 to 125. The current reservation guidelines prohibit commercial or personal business activities, including charging or collecting fees. Fit is therefore limited to a free, approved public workshop—not licensed beauty education, a private campus, or recurring commercial training. Unknowns include approval, recurrence, safeguarding, insurance, equipment, accessibility, and content fit. Action: monitor; no request sent.
Louisville Free Public Library — conditional public-workshop bridge
LFPL’s current room rules state that meetings must be free and open to the general public; library and foundation programs take priority. Fit is limited to a free public AI, workforce, literacy, or entrepreneurship workshop—not private commercial training, an office, or permanent classroom rights. Unknowns include branch/date availability, approval, setup, accessibility, and room-specific limits. Action: monitor public process; no reservation or inquiry sent.
Louisville Landbank — low-cost process watch, not free space
Landbank development programs describe deed-based purchases, project plans, budgets, timelines, proof of funds, monitoring, and restrictions. The Metro Community Impact Solicitations page currently describes a 2026 solicitation for 3736 Lentz Avenue and 921 West Whitney Avenue with final submissions closed October 15 and scoring scheduled through November 13. This is not verified free land or rent-free school space and is not a current application recommendation. Action: monitor; no application, fee, reservation, or contact.
Why no escalation occurred
No candidate met the rare Undeniable Deal threshold of unusually strong public evidence, low ambiguity, and a clear next diligence step. Therefore this run sent no email to Di or Rick, did not check Di’s calendar, did not contact a listing realtor, and did not request a showing. No offer, counteroffer, negotiation, payment, financing or proof-of-funds representation, inspection authorization, contractor/title/lender commitment, signature, or purchase commitment occurred.
Source map and limits
