Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1986, this property is well-maintained and move-in ready but retains many original features. The kitchen has been partially updated with granite countertops and modern stainless steel appliances, yet the cabinetry and fluorescent box lighting are dated. Similarly, the bathrooms feature original wood-trimmed vanities and older tile work. While the flooring and paint are in good condition, the home lacks the comprehensive recent renovation needed for a higher score.
The property allows short-term rentals and features dual primary suites, making it an excellent candidate for a high-yield vacation rental or a seasonal investment.
Located in a 24-hour guard-gated community, residents have access to premium facilities including golf, tennis, pickleball, and on-site dining, ensuring a high-quality lifestyle.
The unit is beautifully positioned to offer stunning views of the pool, lush greenbelts, and mountains, providing a serene and picturesque desert setting.
The HOA fee of $995 per month is significant and may impact the overall affordability and net ROI for potential investors.
As a land lease property, it may face more restrictive financing options and appeal to a smaller pool of buyers compared to fee-simple real estate.
