Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Poor
TeardownExcellent

Property is extensive renovation needed.

Built in 1940, this property is positioned as a fixer-upper with the listing emphasizing 'endless possibilities,' 'massive potential,' and 'your vision starts here,' which are standard industry terms for a home requiring significant rehabilitation. There is no mention of recent updates to the kitchen, bathrooms, or major systems (electrical, HVAC, plumbing). The significant price reduction and the focus on the R-2 zoned corner lot suggest that the value lies primarily in the land and the potential for a total remodel or redevelopment rather than the current condition of the interior finishes.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 8775, living area = 1960.
