The property maintains a Fair Condition Rating (50/100), suggesting the property is in acceptable condition with potential for value enhancement through selective updates and improvements. Located in a high-demand neighborhood within the Merced Unified School District, this asset is categorized as a low-risk, high-reward acquisition suitable for both Buy-and-Hold Investors and Owner-Occupants willing to undertake light renovation work.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1952, the property is well-maintained with recent roof updates (2021-2026), but remains dated. Most units rely on older wall furnaces and evaporative coolers rather than central HVAC, and the age suggests original or older kitchen/bath configurations needing modernization.
The property offers a rare investment setup featuring five total units (three single-family homes and one duplex) on a single 0.45-acre lot, providing diversified income streams and high land-use efficiency.
With current rents at $5,700 and three units noted as being significantly under market rate, there is a clear opportunity for immediate value-add and increased net operating income through lease optimization.
The property features updated roofing across all units (including a new roof to be installed prior to close) and includes individual garages and laundry hookups for every unit, enhancing tenant retention and reducing immediate CapEx.

Four of the five units rely on wall furnaces and evaporative coolers rather than modern central HVAC, which may limit the property's appeal to premium tenants and affect summer comfort.
Originally built in 1952, the property may require more frequent maintenance of older plumbing and electrical systems compared to modern multi-family developments.

All units have a one car garage. The units are well maintained with a good rental history. Current rents are $5,700 but 3 units are significantly under market rate.
