Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

Built in 2012, this property fits the 10-20 year age criteria for a 'good' condition rating. The home is move-in ready and features modern, well-maintained finishes including wide-plank luxury vinyl flooring, quartz countertops, shaker cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances. While it has received recent cosmetic updates like fresh paint, it does not meet the 'excellent' criteria as it is older than 10 years and has not undergone a comprehensive, full-scale renovation within the last 5 years.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Limited Square Footage

    With only 1,158 square feet spread across a multi-room layout, the living areas may feel compact for buyers transitioning from larger single-family homes or those with significant storage needs.
