Condition Analysis

Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1989 (35 years old), this property falls into the 'Fair' category as it is significantly dated and shows signs of wear. While functional, the bathrooms feature older vanities and fixtures, and the interior shows worn carpeting and peeling paint/texture on the ceiling above the shower. It requires cosmetic updates and minor repairs to meet modern move-in standards.
