Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Poor
TeardownExcellent

Property is extensive renovation needed.

The property is currently mid-construction and sold as-is, making it unlivable in its present state. While the architectural plans and renderings depict an excellent luxury estate, the actual condition requires substantial work to complete all major systems, flooring, and fixtures, fitting the rubric's criteria for a property that is currently unsafe or uncomfortable for occupancy.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 53013, living area = 8545.

  • Expedited Development Path

    The property comes with fully approved plans and active permits, allowing a buyer to bypass Malibu's notoriously difficult and lengthy multi-year entitlement process.

  • Architectural Pedigree

    Designed by Doug Burdge, AIA, one of Malibu's most prestigious architects, the estate offers a 'warm-modern' aesthetic that ensures high-end appeal and strong resale value.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • MLS Listing Discrepancy

    Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 8545, other record living area = 2357. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.

  • Incomplete Construction Risk

    The property is sold 'as-is' mid-construction, requiring the buyer to assume significant responsibility for managing the remaining build, costs, and contractor oversight.

  • Visual Uncertainty

    Marketing relies heavily on artist renderings and digitally altered images; the final quality and aesthetic depend entirely on the buyer's execution and choice of finishes.
