Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Originally built in 1942, the property shows signs of a partial renovation likely performed 20+ years ago, evidenced by the white cabinetry and dated tile countertops in the kitchen. While the unit is functional and currently generating income, the small square footage, age of the structure, and the listing's emphasis on 'development potential' and 'investors' indicate that systems and finishes are dated and nearing the end of their effective life.
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 = 7362, living area = 528.
- Strong Rental Income
The property generates a robust $4,000 monthly gross income, offering immediate cash flow and a high yield for potential investors looking for a turnkey income-producing asset.
- Significant Development Potential

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Minimal Living Space
