PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
- High Building-to-Lot Ratio
With a large 3,155 sqft home situated on a 6,082 sqft lot, the outdoor footprint is almost entirely occupied by the pool and hardscaping, resulting in very limited green space or traditional yard area.
- Lack of Scenic Views
The property is noted as having no views, which may be a competitive disadvantage compared to other premium-priced homes in the Whittier area that offer hillside or city light perspectives.
