Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1980 and is located in an established community. While described as a 'plug-and-play' investment with a tenant in place, the lack of interior images showing modern upgrades and the 44-year age of the structure suggest the property is maintained through regular upkeep but likely features outdated kitchen and bathroom components. It meets the 'fair' criteria as an aged but functional home that has not undergone a recent comprehensive renovation.
The property is a turnkey investment with a tenant already in place on a newly renewed lease, providing $24,000 in guaranteed annual gross income with zero initial vacancy.
Located in the Pheasant Creek community, residents have access to multiple pools, spas, tennis and basketball courts, and serene landscaping with running streams, enhancing lifestyle appeal.
The unit is ideally positioned near the Aliso Creek Trail and top-rated schools, including Trabuco Hills High, ensuring sustained long-term demand from both tenants and future buyers.
At 916 square feet for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration, the interior layout may feel restrictive for those seeking more spacious living areas.
Built in 1980, the property may require more frequent maintenance or future capital improvements to its systems and common areas compared to newer developments.
