This Value-Add Residential Asset is listed at $440,000, currently positioned above its $366,568 Fair Market Value to reflect its substantial square footage and prime location. Carrying a Condition Rating of 5, the property requires a comprehensive structural and cosmetic rehab to address its original 1962 finishes and deferred maintenance. However, the 2,260 sqft layout, garage conversion, and No HOA status provide exceptional flexibility for separate living quarters or a home office just 2 miles from ASU. This project offers significant forced appreciation potential for Fix-and-Flip Investors or Contractors ready to modernize a high-demand Tempe property.
