Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
This property presents a mixed condition. The Back ADU has been fully remodeled, featuring modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, recessed lighting, contemporary flooring, and updated bathrooms with subway tile and modern fixtures, placing it in good to excellent condition. However, the main house and front units, built in 1913, show significant age. Their kitchens have older wood cabinets, dated white appliances, and fluorescent lighting, while bathrooms feature pedestal sinks and older tiling. While functional and appearing maintained, these older units require substantial updates to meet current aesthetic and functional standards. The overall property condition is therefore 'Fair' due to the blend of a recently updated ADU and the significantly older, outdated main structures.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Exceptional Income Potential
The property is explicitly marketed for 'HUGE INCOME POTENTIAL' and comprises multiple distinct units: a Main House (5 beds, 3 baths), a Front House with two units (Unit A: 5 beds, 2 baths; Unit B: 1 bed, 1 bath), and a Back ADU (1 bed, 1 bath).
- Immediate Income Generation
Three units (Front House Unit A, Unit B, and the Back ADU) will be delivered vacant, providing the new owner with immediate opportunities to place tenants at market rates and maximize rental income from day one.
- Permitted & Remodeled ADU
The Back ADU is fully remodeled and permitted, adding significant value, ensuring legal compliance, and offering a high-quality, desirable rental unit.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Advanced Age of Construction
Built in 1913, the property is over a century old, suggesting a high likelihood of needing significant capital expenditures for system upgrades (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and general deferred maintenance in the main structures.
- Discrepancy in Property Type/Unit Count
The property is listed as a 'Duplex' but described as having a Main House, a two-unit Front House, and a separate ADU. This inconsistency could lead to legal, zoning, or financing challenges and requires thorough clarification.
- Incomplete Square Footage Information
The provided 'sqft' of 2156 likely represents only a portion of the property (e.g., the main house). The total square footage for all units combined is not specified, making it difficult to accurately assess the property's overall size, value per square foot, and full income potential.
