Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is move-in ready.
The property is move-in ready and features significant recent interior updates, including a renovated kitchen with new shaker-style cabinets, quartz countertops, and stainless steel appliances. While the unit boasts a modern bathroom vanity and new sliding doors, it does not qualify as 'excellent' because it is not a full-scale renovation; older elements remain, such as the bathroom shower tiling, and the 1973 building infrastructure shows typical signs of age in common areas.
