There was this old mill town brick schoolhouse that my folks considered buying .. I guess to live in but also as a studio space.. it would have needed major repairs and you had to drive past a row of literal shacks who were the neighbors. Have no idea what it would have sold for. Years later I shot a no budget music video there.
I looked at a listing for a house in los angeles that most definitely a crackhouse.. the walls were a dark tan from whatever the fuck they were smoking and the place reeked. Hopefully it'll just get torn down.. at the very least you'd have the strip all the sheetrock and that place was still going for $450k

Unfortunately, it drew so much attention that realtors were refusing to give showings since they knew that people just wanted to gawk at it. I can't remember exactly, but I think it was going for somewhere around $140k
Keep your eyes open. New listings pop up pretty often. If you're not seeing anything now, something may pop up that ticks all your boxes.
