More Insights
Built in 1978 (48 years old).
Condition: This duplex, built in 1978, presents a mixed condition. Unit 4505 appears to be in good, move-in ready condition with updated features including hardwood flooring, a kitchen with white cabinets and a newer dishwasher, and a clean, updated bathroom. However, Unit 4507 is explicitly described as 'in the process of being remodeled,' and images confirm it is not move-in ready, showing bare subfloors and unfinished areas. While renovations are underway, the incomplete state of one unit means the property as a whole requires significant work to be fully functional and rentable, placing it in the 'Fair' category rather than 'Good' due to the immediate need to complete the remodel on Unit 4507.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Dual Income Opportunity: As a duplex, the property offers significant potential for rental income or owner-occupancy with rental offset, appealing to both investors and owner-occupants.
Recent & Ongoing Renovations: Unit 4505 is already updated/remodeled, and Unit 4507 is currently undergoing extensive renovations, minimizing immediate capital expenditure for a new owner.
Tenant-Appealing Features: Both units offer desirable amenities such as spacious private backyards, and Unit 4505 boasts vaulted ceilings and a spacious kitchen, while Unit 4507 includes a fireplace, enhancing tenant attraction and retention.
Strategic Location: Proximity to shopping and I-80 ensures convenience and strong long-term rental demand, making it an attractive asset for tenants.
Turnkey Potential (Unit 4505): Unit 4505 is described as updated/remodeled, suggesting it's ready for immediate occupancy or rental, providing quick income generation for the new owner.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 4.
Property Age & Potential Systemic Issues: Built in 1978, the property's age (46 years) suggests that major systems (e.g., roof, HVAC, main plumbing/electrical lines) may be nearing the end of their lifespan, potentially requiring significant future investment beyond cosmetic updates.
Incomplete Remodel & Income Delay for Unit 4507: Unit 4507 is 'in the process of being remodeled,' indicating it's not yet rent-ready. This could lead to delayed rental income and requires the new owner to manage or complete the remaining work.
Ambiguous Unit Configuration & Total Bed/Bath Count: The listing states '2 beds:2 baths' for the entire duplex, which contradicts the description of Unit 4505 having '2 bedrooms with 1 bath.' This lack of clarity on the total bedroom/bathroom count for the entire duplex (especially Unit 4507) creates uncertainty for valuation and rental potential.
