Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1905, this duplex is accurately described as a 'light fixer.' While the kitchens have been updated with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances, the bathrooms remain dated and show signs of wear. The interior features a mix of flooring types including tile, laminate, and worn carpeting. The property is functional and livable but requires minor updates and cosmetic repairs to meet modern standards, consistent with the 'fair' criteria for a well-maintained but aged home.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Investment Location
Situated just one mile from USC and within the DPS Patrol Zone, the property is perfectly positioned to capture high demand from the lucrative student housing market.
- Immediate Rental Upside
Both units are delivered vacant, allowing an investor or owner-occupant to immediately lease at current market rates without the complications of tenant relocation.
- Development Potential
The R2 zoning and generous 6,636 sqft lot provide significant opportunities for expansion or the addition of ADUs to increase density and long-term appreciation.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Renovation Requirements
Identified as a 'light fixer' built in 1905, the property will require an upfront capital investment to modernize interiors and address potential age-related maintenance.
- HPOZ Regulatory Constraints
Being located within a Historic Preservation Overlay Zone (HPOZ) means exterior renovations and developments are subject to strict guidelines and approval processes.
- Limited Bathroom Count
With only one bathroom per three-bedroom unit, the configuration may be less competitive compared to modern renovations that typically offer higher bed-to-bath ratios.
