Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1979 (45 years old), the property is dated and requires cosmetic updates. While it features newer laminate flooring and dual-pane windows, the kitchen cabinetry and wood-paneled walls are original in style. The listing's reliance on AI-enhanced renderings to illustrate 'possibilities' confirms the current interior needs modernization to build equity.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
High School: Colfax High School (9/10).
- Investment Potential
Priced competitively under $200,000 with significant 'upside potential,' this property offers a strong opportunity for investors or first-time buyers to build equity through renovations in a high-rental-demand area.
- Rare Functional Layout
Unlike many units in the complex, this home features a rare main-level half-bath and energy-efficient dual-pane windows, providing enhanced daily convenience and improved energy performance.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Significant Renovation Needed
The heavy reliance on AI-enhanced renderings for marketing indicates the property's current condition requires substantial cosmetic or structural updates to be move-in ready.
- Extended Market Time
With 116 days on the market and a recent price reduction, the property has faced challenges in securing a buyer, likely due to its current condition compared to the list price.
