Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1945, the property is well-maintained but dated. While it features essential system upgrades like a newer roof and central HVAC, the interior finishes—including the bathroom vanity, tile work, and flooring—appear to be over 20 years old and require cosmetic modernization.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Modern Infrastructure Upgrades
The property features significant capital improvements including central air conditioning, heating, and a newer roof, providing immediate comfort and reducing potential near-term maintenance costs for the buyer.
- Versatile Living Space
The inclusion of a converted garage and a covered backyard area significantly expands the usable square footage, offering flexible options for a home office, gym, or year-round entertaining space.
- Competitive Market Entry Point
Priced at $549,000 for a 3-bedroom residence, this home represents a strong value proposition and an accessible entry point into the Oakland real estate market for first-time buyers or investors.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Underperforming School District
The assigned local schools, specifically the high schools, carry low performance ratings (1-3), which may be a deterrent for families prioritizing education and could impact future resale appreciation.
- Potential Permitting Discrepancies
There is a notable discrepancy between the listing description (1 bath) and the data field (2 baths), which may indicate unpermitted work or require further due diligence regarding the home's official records.
