Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1941, this property is a triplex with mixed conditions. The single-family home (SFH) has been nicely updated with a modern kitchen featuring white shaker cabinets, subway tile backsplash, butcher block countertops, and stainless steel appliances, along with newer LVP flooring and fresh paint. This portion of the property is in good condition. However, the two duplex units appear significantly older and less updated, featuring dated wood cabinets, older white appliances, and a mix of older tile and carpet flooring in the kitchens and living areas. The bathrooms in the duplex units also show older fixtures and tile work, likely renovated 15-30 years ago or not at all since original construction. While functional, these units would require substantial cosmetic updates to meet current market standards, bringing the overall property condition to 'Fair'.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Multi-Unit Income Potential
The property comprises a single-family home and a duplex, offering significant rental income opportunities or flexible multi-generational living arrangements as a triplex.
- Updated Main Residence
The single-family home has been nicely updated with newer paint and flooring, presenting a move-in ready option for an owner-occupant or a premium rental unit.
- Strategic Location

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Property Age & Potential Deferred Maintenance
Built in 1941, the property's age suggests potential for deferred maintenance or the need for significant system and structural updates, particularly in the non-updated duplex units.
- Mixed School Ratings
While some schools are well-rated, the immediate proximity to Las Juntas Elementary (rated 3/10) and Martinez Junior High (rated 4/10) could be a drawback for families prioritizing top-tier public education.
- Duplex Unit Condition Ambiguity
The description highlights updates in the single-family home but is silent on the duplex units, implying they may require renovation or modernization to maximize rental value and tenant appeal.
