Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 2004 (22 years old), the property falls into the 'Fair' category due to its age exceeding 20 years. While move-in ready with new carpet, the kitchen and bathrooms feature original builder-grade oak cabinetry and white tile countertops that are now dated and likely original to the construction. Systems are functional but nearing the end of their typical life cycle.

Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =2040, other record lot size in square feet = 1644.
- Extended Market Time
The property has been on the market for 53 days and required a significant price cut, which may suggest initial overpricing or difficulty competing with newer inventory.
