Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1910, this property shows significant signs of age and deferred maintenance. The kitchen (Image 10) is extremely outdated with old appliances, worn cabinets, and dated flooring, requiring a complete overhaul. Light fixtures throughout are basic and old-fashioned. The exterior (Images 1, 3, 8) exhibits peeling paint and general disrepair. While currently occupied, the property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to bring it to modern standards, affecting comfort and potentially safety, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Duplex Configuration: The property is a duplex with two separate units (2 bed/1 bath and 1 bed/1 bath), offering immediate income potential for investors or owner-occupants.
Strategic Price Adjustment: A significant price reduction from $850,000 to $675,000 enhances its value proposition and potential for a favorable acquisition.
Desirable Park Proximity: Located in close proximity to popular Echo Park and Elysian Park, providing residents with convenient access to green spaces and recreational activities.
Urban Accessibility: Situated less than 10 miles from Downtown Los Angeles, offering excellent access to major employment centers, entertainment, and urban amenities.
Access to Rated Schools: The area benefits from several nearby public schools with good ratings, enhancing its appeal to families.
Cons
Historic Property Age: Built in 1910, the property likely requires significant updates to plumbing, electrical, and other systems, incurring substantial renovation costs.
Compact Unit Sizes: With 1280 sqft split between a 2-bedroom and a 1-bedroom unit, the living spaces are relatively small, potentially limiting tenant appeal or rental income compared to larger units.
Potential for Deferred Maintenance: The property's age strongly suggests the likelihood of deferred maintenance and the need for considerable capital expenditure to modernize and bring systems up to current standards.
