Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1913, this property consists of two homes that are functional but require cosmetic updates to modernize the kitchens and bathrooms. While the units appear well-maintained with regular upkeep, the fixtures, flooring, and appliances are dated and do not reflect recent renovations, placing it firmly in the fair category.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Dual-Unit Income Potential
The property features two separate 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom homes on a single lot, providing an ideal opportunity for house-hacking or generating dual rental income streams.
- Independent Utility Metering
Both residences are equipped with separate entrances, separate electrical meters, and separate water services, which simplifies property management and minimizes landlord utility overhead.
- Spacious Lot and Privacy
Situated on a 6,500-square-foot lot, the property offers ample parking and true physical separation between the front and rear units, ensuring privacy for all occupants.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 2.
- Cosmetic Updates Required
The homes require cosmetic renovations to modernize the interiors and maximize their market value, necessitating immediate post-purchase capital investment.
- Century-Old Infrastructure
Built in 1913, the property may present challenges associated with aged building systems and historic maintenance requirements typical of early 20th-century construction.
