Might ask the gambler 500 Facebook group. They keep a keen eye out for stuff like this, and will probably see it if it's being sold.

Reply to To afraid to ask: would a $170k down payment be able to afford me a house in Western Washington? by PopNo5397
It'll get you a mobile home or condo on the $170k alone. With patience you'd be able to find a standalone home that needs some real work, but it won't be close to town. That's again without taking on any debt.
On that income and down payment I suspect you could swing $350k total, maybe $400k. That will buy you a small house in a small town here.
If by "western Washington" you really mean Seattle, that's a lot tougher. A standalone house here will min out around $500k, and condos min out around $250k. I would probably aim just a little above the bottom of the market and think about a condo around $300k.
