Sacramento, CA 95825
This Affordable Entry-Level Condominium is listed at $154,900, representing a stable entry point relative to its $145,595 Fair Market Value. Currently holding a Condition Rating of 4, the unit is well-maintained but features original 1987 finishes, balanced by a brand-new HVAC system installed last year. The functional floor plan includes a fireplace, in-unit laundry, and a covered patio, with access to community amenities like a pool and spa. While high association fees and proximity to lower-rated schools like Encina Preparatory are factors, the price remains highly accessible. This is a practical acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or first-time buyers seeking Sacramento real estate.

* Subject property listed price vs sold prices of comps.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property, built in 1987, is well-maintained and move-in ready but shows significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features older white appliances, including an electric coil stove, and laminate countertops. The bathroom contains basic white cabinetry and a standard fiberglass tub surround. While the HVAC system is a notable recent upgrade (1 year old), the interior finishes, including the carpet and fixtures, reflect the property's age without evidence of a comprehensive modern renovation.
The property features a brand-new HVAC system installed just one year ago, providing the new owner with improved energy efficiency and significant savings on immediate maintenance costs.
The unit offers a highly desirable floor plan for its size, including a separate family room with a fireplace, a dedicated dining area, and the convenience of an in-unit laundry room.
Priced competitively at $154,900 with a recent price reduction, this condominium represents an excellent entry-level opportunity for first-time buyers or investors in the Sacramento area.
The monthly HOA fee of $642 is relatively high compared to the purchase price, which may impact a buyer's monthly debt-to-income ratio and overall affordability.
The property is zoned for local schools with low performance ratings, which could limit appeal for certain buyer demographics and potentially affect long-term appreciation.
