Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1985 (39 years old). While it features some functional updates such as a newer central AC, granite countertops, and laminated wood flooring, the overall interior aesthetic and cabinetry appear dated. The exterior stucco shows some staining, and the property fits the criteria for being over 20 years old and requiring minor cosmetic updates to be modernized.
Situated in North El Monte with immediate access to the I-10 and 605 freeways, the property is conveniently located near major shopping hubs including Target, Northgate, and various Asian supermarkets.
The $360 monthly HOA fee offers exceptional value by covering water, trash, roof maintenance, property insurance, and community amenities like the swimming pool, ensuring low-maintenance living.
The townhouse features several high-value improvements, including a newer central air conditioning system, granite countertops, and durable laminated wood flooring throughout the living spaces.
The three-story layout, with the master bedroom on the top floor and living areas on the second, may be less desirable for buyers with mobility concerns or those preferring a more traditional floor plan.
The urgency regarding the expiring FNMA HOA limited review program suggests potential challenges with conventional financing, which may limit the pool of eligible lenders or buyers.
