Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Excellent
TeardownExcellent

Property is new construction or fully renovated.

Despite being built in 1984, this property underwent an extensive, near-total renovation in 2018 (6 years ago). The listing explicitly states that this included new electrical, plumbing, roofing, stucco, flooring, doors, kitchens, insulation, bathrooms, wiring, appliances, and water tanks. The images confirm modern kitchens with granite countertops, updated cabinetry, and stainless steel appliances, as well as contemporary bathrooms with new vanities, fixtures, and tiling. New hardwood-style laminate flooring is consistent throughout the living areas and bedrooms. The presence of paid-off solar panels on two of the homes further indicates a high level of recent investment and modernization. This comprehensive renovation brings the property's condition to a virtually new standard, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

    The permit status of the two large barns (approximately 3,000 sq. ft. each) is unknown, posing potential legal and financial risks for future use or development.

  • Significant Price History Discrepancy

    The listing history shows an initial list price of $24,999,000, followed by a substantial reduction to the current $2,499,000, which raises concerns about the property's valuation strategy and market perception.

  • Inconsistent Property Data

    Discrepancies exist between the total listed square footage (4710 sqft) and the sum of individual home square footages (6318 sqft), along with the 'Single Family Residence' sub-type for a property with three separate homes, which could lead to confusion or misrepresentation.
