Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Fair
TeardownExcellent

Property is moderate renovation needed.

The property, built in 1991, benefits from recent updates including new carpet, fresh paint, and brand-new stainless steel kitchen appliances, making it move-in ready. However, the kitchen cabinets and granite countertops, along with both bathrooms' fixtures, tile, and vanity styles, are visibly dated from the original construction or an earlier renovation (likely 15-30 years ago). While clean and well-maintained, these areas show signs of being outdated and would require minor updates for a more contemporary aesthetic.
