Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1962, this multi-unit property is presented as a functional investment opportunity rather than a recently renovated home. While the exterior and systems like separate meters appear maintained, the listing lacks mention of modern upgrades to kitchens, bathrooms, or flooring. Given the age and the description's focus on 'value-add potential' and 'investment opportunity,' the property likely features aged components that are functional but outdated, fitting the criteria for fair condition.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- High-Yield Income Potential
This rare residential income property features three distinct units—a 3BR front house, a 2BR rear house, and a studio—offering multiple revenue streams and maximum flexibility for investors or multi-generational living.
- Exceptional Lot and Parking
The expansive 13,499 SF lot provides a detached two-car garage, multiple carports, and a long double-wide driveway, solving the common multi-unit challenge of providing ample parking for all tenants.
- Operational Efficiency
The property is equipped with separate meters for gas, water, and electricity, a significant value-add that simplifies management and reduces the owner's monthly utility overhead.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Permit and Compliance Risk
The studio unit is a converted pool house, which may raise concerns regarding legal permitting and zoning compliance, requiring the buyer to perform extensive due diligence.
- Market Valuation Gap
The current list price represents a substantial premium over the 2023 sale price of $1.4M, which may be difficult to support without significant documented capital improvements or top-tier rental income.
