This Residential Income Duplex presents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $275,000—positioned well below the $311,522 Fair Market Value by 11%. This valuation gap offers $36,522 in Instant Equity for the buyer. Featuring a Condition Rating of 4, the property requires modernization of core systems to maximize rental yields. With two detached units, this asset is a strategic acquisition for Buy-and-Hold Investors or Owner-Occupants seeking to offset mortgage costs through immediate cash flow.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Originally built in 1935, the property has received some cosmetic updates including newer laminate flooring and interior paint. However, the kitchen is dated with older cabinetry and basic appliances, and the exterior shows signs of deferred maintenance such as a crumbling perimeter wall and torn weed barriers. It remains functional and move-in ready but requires modernization of core systems and wet areas to meet higher standards.
The property features two detached units, allowing an owner-occupant to live in one while renting the other to offset mortgage costs or for an investor to generate immediate double-stream cash flow.
Unlike traditional duplexes with shared walls, these detached units offer enhanced privacy and reduced noise transfer, making them more attractive to high-quality long-term tenants.
Listed at $275,000 for nearly 1,900 square feet of living space, this property represents a low-cost entry point into the Southern California multi-family investment market.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1868, other record living area = 1128.
Originally built in 1935, the structures may require substantial capital expenditures for modernizing aging infrastructure, such as electrical, plumbing, and roofing systems.
The property lacks any scenic views and is situated in a high-desert market that may experience slower appreciation compared to more metropolitan residential regions.
