Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

Built in 1971, this fourplex is well-maintained but largely original or features older updates. The kitchens and bathrooms show dated cabinetry, countertops, and appliances consistent with a property requiring 'repositioning.' While functional and habitable, the interior finishes, flooring, and fixtures are aged and require modernization to achieve current market rental rates.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Prime Coastal Location

    Situated just steps from the beach and within walking distance to San Clemente’s vibrant downtown village and coastal trails, this property occupies a highly coveted location with enduring tenant demand.

  • Significant Rental Upside

    Current rents are substantially below market levels, providing a compelling opportunity for investors to significantly increase NOI and property value through strategic repositioning.

  • Diverse Unit Mix & Storage

    The property features a versatile mix of 3BR, 2BR, and 1BR units plus a rare 4-room basement storage area, appealing to a wide demographic of renters from families to professionals.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =6098, other record lot size in square feet = 5930.

  • Capital Improvement Needs

    Built in 1971 and marketed for its 'repositioning' potential, the property likely requires immediate capital expenditure for modern upgrades to realize its full market rent potential.

  • Initial Cash Flow Limitations

    Due to the current under-market rents, the initial capitalization rate may be lower than preferred for some investors until leases are turned over or units are renovated.
