San Jose, California 95125
Analysis of 528 Minnesota Avenue, San Jose, California 95125 is currently available with a list price of $1,350,000. The property maintains a Poor Condition Rating (30/100), indicating the property requires renovation and updates to maximize its market potential. This presents opportunities for value-add investors. Located in a high-demand neighborhood within the San Jose Unified School District, this asset is categorized as a low-risk, high-reward acquisition suitable for Experienced Investors and Fix-and-Flip Specialists.
Property is extensive renovation needed.
Built in 1939 and explicitly marketed as a 'fixer' priced at 'land value.' While one bathroom shows a recent renovation, the rest of the home features heavily dated wood paneling, stained carpeting, and 40+ year old finishes. The listing suggests the property is a candidate for a new build or major rehab.
The oversized 8,592 sqft lot backing to a creek provides a rare canvas for a high-end new build, ADU addition, or potential conversion into a multi-unit income property.
Located in the desirable 95125 zip code on a street transitioning with luxury remodels, the property is positioned to benefit from high resale values and proximity to top-rated schools like Booksin Elementary.
Priced near land value following a major reduction from the original list price, this property offers a high-margin opportunity for investors or builders to capture equity in a competitive market.
As a designated 'fixer' being sold primarily for land value, the existing 1939 structure likely requires a complete overhaul or demolition, necessitating significant capital and construction expertise.
The property's proximity to a creek and the suggestion of multi-unit conversion may involve complex environmental setbacks and zoning verifications that could delay development timelines.
