Salinas, California 93906
This Condominium represents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity, listed at $425,000—positioned above the $410,532 Fair Market Value. While the price reflects a premium, the property offers a Condition Rating of 4, featuring an updated kitchen and the rare convenience of in-unit laundry. Its prime location across from Northridge Mall ensures high rental demand, though the $595 HOA fee and lower-rated local schools warrant careful financial planning. This asset is best suited for Buy-and-Hold Investors or first-time buyers prioritizing walkability and immediate move-in readiness.
