Cons
Recently Sold Property: The property was recently sold within the past year on 2025-11-07. The sold price is $265,000.00.
Significant Price Depreciation: The current list price of $425,000 is substantially lower than previous sales in 2017 ($680,000) and 2019 ($630,000), which may indicate a loss in market value or raise concerns about investment stability.
High Monthly Association Fees: A monthly association fee of $615 is considerable for an 897 sqft unit, adding a significant recurring cost to ownership and potentially impacting affordability.
Limited Bathroom Count: The property features only one bathroom, which may be a drawback for some buyers, particularly those seeking more convenience or accommodating multiple occupants.
