Property is move-in ready.
The property is a 1907 duplex where one unit has been extensively and modernly renovated within the last year, featuring a new kitchen with stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, new flooring, dual-pane windows, and a mini-split HVAC system. While the renovated unit meets 'excellent' standards, the 'good' rating for the overall property accounts for the second unit remaining in an unrenovated state and the age of the primary structure.
The duplex configuration allows an owner-occupant to live in one unit while renting the other, providing a significant hedge against mortgage costs and appealing to FHA/VA buyers.
The property comes with approved plans for an ADU and approximately $7,000 in pre-paid school fees, offering a streamlined opportunity to increase the property's value and rental yield.
One unit is fully updated with modern amenities including a new mini-split A/C, stainless steel appliances, dual-pane windows, and new flooring, ensuring immediate occupancy without initial repair costs.
Only one of the two units has been fully remodeled, likely requiring the new owner to invest additional capital into the second unit to maximize the property's total rental potential.
Built in 1907, the property may have underlying infrastructure and maintenance requirements typical of older homes that are not addressed by the cosmetic renovations in the primary unit.
