Condition Rating
Good
The property was built in 2008, making it 16 years old, which falls within the 'Good' category's age range (10-20 years). While the kitchen features wood cabinets and tile countertops that appear dated, and the bathrooms have similar finishes, all components seem functional and well-maintained with no immediate renovations required. The tile flooring throughout is consistent and clean. There are no visible signs of significant wear and tear or deferred maintenance, aligning with a move-in ready condition for its age.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Versatility & Flexible Layout: The property offers a highly versatile floor plan with multiple attached sections (3BR/3BA main, 1BR/1BA with separate entrance, 1BR/2BA), allowing for multi-generational living, potential income generation, or a large combined family residence.
Separate Utility Meters: Equipped with two separate meters for electric and gas, this feature significantly enhances the property's flexibility for multi-occupant use or rental scenarios, allowing for clear utility cost allocation.
Generous Square Footage: With 4931 square feet of living space, the home provides ample room for various living arrangements, offering spaciousness that appeals to a wide range of buyers.
Multiple Garages: The presence of both a 1-car and a 2-car garage offers extensive parking, storage, and potential workshop space, adding significant practical value.
Rental Income Potential & Occupancy Flexibility: Currently rented, the property offers immediate income potential for investors, while the option to deliver it vacant prior to COE provides flexibility for owner-occupants.
Cons
Legal Single-Family Designation: Despite its multi-unit-like layout with separate entrances and meters, the property is legally permitted as a single-family home, which could complicate financing or long-term rental strategies for buyers seeking true multi-family properties.
History of Price Reductions: The property has undergone significant price reductions from its original list price, potentially indicating initial overpricing, market resistance, or perceived value issues that may concern prospective buyers.
Lack of Desirable Views: The property explicitly states 'view: None,' which can be a drawback in Palm Desert where mountain, golf course, or desert views are often highly sought after and can significantly enhance property value and appeal.
