* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1973, this property shows signs of partial cosmetic updates including fresh paint, newer windows, and new upstairs flooring. However, the kitchen remains dated with older painted cabinetry and basic white appliances. While functional and move-in ready, the core systems and finishes are over 20 years old, placing it in the fair category.
The complex is both FHA and VA approved, making it a highly accessible option for first-time homebuyers and military personnel seeking low-down-payment financing.
With new flooring throughout the upstairs, fresh interior paint, and newer windows, the home offers a modern, light, and bright aesthetic that minimizes immediate post-purchase expenses.
Ideally situated near highly-rated schools and shopping centers, the property also benefits from community features including a swimming pool and park areas.
The lack of in-unit laundry and the use of a shared garage for four units may be a drawback for buyers prioritizing privacy and convenience.
The $490 monthly association fee is relatively high for an 896-square-foot unit, which could impact the overall affordability and debt-to-income ratio for prospective buyers.
