Union City, California 94587
This Strong Value Opportunity is a 1-bedroom condominium listed at a List Price of $400,000, positioned well below the $379,020 Fair Market Value by -5%. Featuring a Condition Rating of 4, the unit offers a functional layout with community pool access and proximity to top-rated schools like James Logan High. While the short sale status requires lender approval, the property provides a strategic entry point into the Union City market. This is an ideal acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or first-time buyers seeking a connected, commuter-friendly lifestyle.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1984 (40 years old), the property is well-maintained and move-in ready but remains dated. The kitchen features older oak cabinetry, and the unit utilizes a dated wall heating system rather than modern central HVAC. While it has fresh paint and carpet, the core systems and finishes are over 20 years old, fitting the criteria for minor updates.
The property is ideally situated with easy access to major freeways and BART, offering a highly connected lifestyle for Bay Area professionals.
Zoned for well-rated schools including James Logan High (Rating 8) and Tom Kitayama Elementary (Rating 7), providing significant appeal for families and long-term value.
Priced at $400,000, this condo represents a rare and affordable opportunity to enter the Union City market, making it attractive for first-time buyers and investors.
As a short sale subject to lender approval, the transaction may involve a lengthy and unpredictable closing timeline compared to standard residential sales.
The $592 monthly association fee is relatively high for a 590-square-foot unit, which may impact the overall affordability and debt-to-income ratio for potential buyers.
