Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Good
TeardownExcellent

Property is move-in ready.

The property is in move-in ready condition with significant recent cosmetic updates, including new flooring, fresh paint, and recessed lighting. The kitchen is well-maintained with granite countertops and brand-new appliances, and the bathrooms feature updated vanities and tiled showers. While the structure was built in 1984, the interior has been modernized to eliminate deferred maintenance, though it does not quite reach the 'excellent' level of a brand-new or total down-to-the-studs renovation.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • High Monthly HOA Fees

    The association fee of $745 per month is relatively high, which significantly increases the total monthly carrying cost and may impact the purchasing power of budget-conscious buyers.
