Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1996, this 29-year-old property falls within the 25-40 year age bracket defined for the 'fair' category. While the unit is well-maintained and move-in ready with a newly installed SPC kitchen floor and customized shutters, it has not undergone an extensive full-scale renovation of the bathrooms or kitchen cabinetry. The property shows signs of its era, and the infrastructure is noted as aging, suggesting that while functional, the major components and aesthetic features are largely original or dated.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • High Monthly HOA Dues

  • Aging Infrastructure

    Built in 1996, the property may require further modernizations beyond the kitchen flooring to compete with the contemporary finishes and energy efficiencies found in newer downtown luxury developments.
