As a one-bedroom, one-bathroom unit, the property's configuration limits its appeal to a smaller demographic, primarily single occupants, couples, first-time buyers, or investors.
- High Monthly Association Fees
The monthly association fee of $495 is a significant recurring expense that adds to the overall cost of ownership, which could be a deterrent for some buyers.
