Analysis of 1224 27th, San Diego, California 92102 is currently available with a list price of $860,000. The property maintains a Tear down Condition Rating (10/100), reflecting significant deferred maintenance.

Located in a high-demand neighborhood within the San Diego Unified School District, this asset is categorized as a low-risk, high-reward acquisition suitable for Experienced Investors and Fix-and-Flip Specialists.
Property is land value only, full reconstruction required.
The property is currently a construction site featuring a partially demolished structure originally built in 1930. It is unlivable in its current state, with the listing value residing in the land and the included stamped permits for a new two-unit development project.

The $860,000 list price covers the land and permits only; the buyer will need to secure substantial additional financing to cover the full cost of constructing the two new units.
The local public schools carry ratings between 3 and 5, which may be a deterrent for families specifically seeking top-tier educational districts.
