This property represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $899,999. While the $847,592 Fair Market Value reflects the current Condition Rating 5, the asset offers significant forced appreciation through unrecorded upstairs living space and two sheds with ADU conversion potential.

This probate sale is an ideal acquisition for Fix-and-Flip Investors or Contractors ready to execute a full-scale renovation to unlock maximum ROI.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1948, this property is in mostly original condition and requires substantial rehabilitation. Images and description confirm the need for a complete kitchen and bathroom remodel, new flooring (currently showing exposed subfloor in areas), and significant exterior repairs to the stucco, gutters, and fencing. The outbuildings are in a state of disrepair, and the overall interior shows heavy wear and outdated systems.
The property features unrecorded upstairs living space and two backyard sheds with ADU conversion potential, offering a unique opportunity to substantially increase square footage and property value.
Ideally situated near major freeways, BART, and CalTrain, this home provides exceptional commuter access alongside proximity to local shopping, dining, and the Centennial Way Trail.
With a recent price reduction and a low price-per-square-foot relative to the actual usable space, this property represents a high-margin opportunity for investors or buyers seeking sweat equity.
As a cosmetic fixer, the home requires immediate investment in a new kitchen, bathroom, flooring, and exterior repairs, which may challenge buyers with limited liquid capital.
The sale is subject to probate court requirements, including a mandatory 10% cashier's check and specific bid forms, which adds complexity and rigidity to the offer process.
