More Insights
Built in 1954 (71 years old).
Condition: While the property benefits from significant recent updates such as a brand new roof, 2-year-old central air conditioning units, recent exterior paint, and a newly paved driveway, the interior condition of the kitchen and bathrooms is extremely dated. The kitchen features original-style wood cabinets, tiled countertops and backsplash, and older flooring, indicating no major renovation in several decades. Similarly, the bathroom shown has a very dated tiled vanity, old fixtures, and strip lighting. These core interior spaces would require substantial renovation and rehabilitation to meet current quality standards and modern buyer expectations, making the property 'Poor' in terms of its overall interior condition and aesthetic appeal, despite the functional improvements to major systems.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Duplex: This property is a duplex, explicitly designed as a residential income property, offering two separate units for immediate rental income or owner-occupancy with supplemental income.
Extensive Recent Capital Improvements: Significant upgrades include a brand new roof, recent exterior paint, newly paved driveway, and central air conditioning units that are only two years old, minimizing immediate capital expenditures for a new owner.
Desirable Interior Features: Both units feature hardwood floors, central air and heating, and dedicated laundry rooms, enhancing tenant appeal and overall living comfort.
Private Amenities & Outdoor Spaces: Each unit benefits from its own private garage and individual outdoor areas, including patios for both and a nice backyard for the rear unit, providing convenience and a sense of personal space.
Established Neighborhood Location: Located in the desirable 'Michigan Park neighborhood' of Whittier, suggesting a stable and potentially appreciating residential area.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1954, the property's underlying structure is older, which may imply potential for unseen issues or older infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical) not covered by recent cosmetic and major system upgrades.
Limited Interior Detail Beyond Major Upgrades: While hardwood floors are mentioned, the description lacks specific details on the condition or updates of key interior areas like kitchens and bathrooms (beyond one 'beautiful bathroom'), which are crucial for tenant attraction and value assessment.
Potential for Shared Utilities/Maintenance: As a duplex, there is a possibility of shared utility meters or common area maintenance responsibilities that are not explicitly detailed, which could lead to complexities in management or cost allocation between units.
