More Insights
Built in 1948 (77 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1948, has undergone extensive interior renovations, making both units move-in ready. The kitchens feature modern white shaker cabinets, stainless steel appliances, subway tile backsplashes, and recessed lighting. Bathrooms are updated with contemporary vanities and tiled showers. Flooring throughout the living areas and bedrooms is new laminate, and walls are freshly painted. While the interior is modern and well-maintained, the exterior, including the roof and garage, shows signs of age consistent with the original build year, and the underlying infrastructure of a 1948 property may still be older, preventing an 'Excellent' rating.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Approved ADU Plans & Permits: Significant value-add with pre-approved plans and permits for two additional 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom ADU units (850 sqft each), saving the buyer substantial time and an estimated $50,000 in development costs.
Fully Remodeled & Spacious Units: Both existing units are completely remodeled, featuring spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom layouts with large kitchens, ample storage, and walk-in closets, ensuring immediate tenant appeal and reduced buyer renovation costs.
Strong Income & Owner-Occupant Potential: As a duplex with approved ADU expansion, the property offers robust income generation for investors and an attractive 'live in one, rent the other' opportunity for first-time homebuyers.
Desirable Amenities (Private Yards & Garage): Each unit benefits from its own private yard space, enhancing tenant desirability, complemented by a valuable 3-car garage providing ample parking or additional storage/income.
Strategic Santa Ana Location: Situated in Santa Ana, a dynamic Orange County market, the property is well-positioned for rental demand and long-term appreciation, as highlighted by its 'money-making' potential.
Cons
Mixed to Low School Ratings: Several nearby elementary and middle schools have ratings of 2-3, which may be a deterrent for families prioritizing access to top-tier public education.
Age of Original Structure (1948): Despite interior remodels, the property's 1948 construction year suggests potential for underlying infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, foundation) to be older, possibly leading to unforeseen maintenance or upgrade costs.
Missing/Incorrect Square Footage Data: The listed square footage of '2' is a significant data discrepancy, creating uncertainty and requiring immediate verification to accurately assess property value and unit sizes.
