Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1950, this quadruplex appears to be in functional but dated condition. The exterior shows signs of age including older stucco, weathered windows, and aged utility meters. The absence of interior photos and the listing's mention of 'rental upside' strongly suggest that the kitchens and bathrooms are likely outdated and have not undergone a full modern renovation within the last 15 years. While the property is well-maintained for its age, it fits the 'Fair' criteria as an aged asset with major components that are functional but show signs of being outdated.
Elementary School: Jack L. Weaver Elementary School (9/10). High School: Los Alamitos High School (9/10).

With three of the four units being studios, the property may face higher tenant turnover and a more limited demographic compared to buildings with larger multi-bedroom configurations.
