Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1956, this property is functional but shows significant signs of age and dated aesthetics. The kitchen features very old-style dark wood cabinets, dated countertops, and an outdated ceiling, though it has newer laminate flooring and a stainless steel dishwasher. The bathroom also appears very dated with an older vanity and light fixtures. While livable, the property requires substantial cosmetic updates and renovations in key areas like the kitchen and bathrooms to meet modern standards, aligning with the 'Fair' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Functional Layout: The property boasts a desirable 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom configuration, offering ample space and flexibility for families or those needing extra rooms.
Single-Family Residence: As a detached single-family home, it provides privacy, autonomy, and the highly sought-after benefits of homeownership in a residential neighborhood.
Generous Lot Size: With a 5,000 sqft lot, there is significant outdoor space for recreation, gardening, or potential future expansion, enhancing its overall appeal.
Strategic Location: Situated in Lawndale, the property benefits from its South Bay location, offering convenient access to major freeways, employment centers, and coastal amenities.
Recent Price Adjustment: The recent $55,000 price reduction from its original list price makes the property more competitive and potentially attractive to a wider range of buyers, signaling seller motivation.
Cons
Restrictive Showing Instructions: The highly unusual and demanding showing requirements ('APPOINTMENT ONLY and ONLY WITH PRE QUALIFIED CLIENTS. Agent has to come from valley') create a significant barrier to access and could deter potential buyers and their agents.
Age of Property: Built in 1956, the home is nearly 70 years old, which often implies the need for updates to systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and finishes to meet contemporary buyer expectations, unless significant renovations have already occurred.
Extended Market Time & Price Drop: The property has been on the market for almost two months and has already experienced a substantial price reduction, suggesting it may have been initially overpriced or faces challenges in attracting offers.
