Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1914 and explicitly marketed as a 'Contractor special!' and 'As-Is Sale,' this property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The listing notes 'Age-Related Maintenance & Systems' and 'Extensive Renovation Required,' indicating outdated plumbing, electrical, and heating systems, and significant deferred maintenance. The exterior images show an aged structure with weathered siding, an old fence, and cracked concrete, reinforcing the need for major overhaul. Without interior photos, it's safe to assume the kitchen and bathrooms are severely outdated and require full renovation, consistent with a property of this age and description.

Access to Top-Rated Schools: Located within proximity to several highly-rated public schools, enhancing its appeal for families.
Cons

Extensive Renovation Required & As-Is Sale: The property is explicitly sold 'As-Is' and described as a 'Contractor special,' indicating it requires significant investment and effort for necessary repairs and upgrades.
Tenant Occupancy: The current tenant occupancy may complicate the sales process, including property access for viewings and inspections, and potential challenges with tenant relocation.
Age-Related Maintenance & Systems: Built in 1914, the home likely has original or outdated systems (plumbing, electrical, heating) and deferred maintenance, which could lead to considerable unexpected costs for the buyer.
