Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1908, this property is marketed as an investment opportunity with significant red flags regarding its condition and legality. The attempt to fit six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and three kitchens into only 1,126 square feet suggests extreme functional obsolescence and likely unpermitted, substandard conversions. The listing's explicit warning for buyers to verify permit status and the age of the structure indicate that major systems (electrical, plumbing, and structural) likely require substantial repair or replacement to meet modern safety standards and building codes.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
Middle School: Lincoln Middle School (9/10). High School: Alameda High School (9/10).
- High Rental Potential
With six bedrooms, four bathrooms, and three separate kitchen areas across three entrances, this property offers exceptional flexibility for multi-generational living or generating multiple streams of rental income.
- Dual Street Access
The lot features rare access from both 40th Avenue and Rosedale, providing convenient parking and private entry points for different occupants within the fully fenced perimeter.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Permit and Compliance Risk
The additional living areas and kitchen conversions require buyer verification of permit status, posing a significant risk regarding legal occupancy and potential code enforcement issues.
- Square Footage Discrepancy
The official record of 1,126 square feet for a six-bedroom layout suggests either very small room sizes or significant unrecorded additions, which may complicate traditional financing and appraisals.
