Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1911, this property is marketed primarily as a redevelopment or major value-add opportunity, including RTI plans for a 5-unit multifamily project. The interior shows significant signs of age and deferred maintenance, with outdated flooring, window AC units indicating a lack of central HVAC, and a kitchen/utility area that lacks modern fixtures and cabinetry. The property analysis explicitly identifies aging infrastructure—including potential needs for electrical, plumbing, and foundation repairs—as a major weakness, fitting the criteria for substantial rehabilitation.
