Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1984, this property is explicitly described as a 'light cosmetic fixer' requiring immediate investment in flooring and paint. While it features functional systems like central HVAC and desirable architectural elements like vaulted ceilings, the kitchen and bathrooms appear dated and largely original to the 40-year-old construction, fitting the criteria for a maintained but unrenovated home.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Value-Add Opportunity
Positioned as a light cosmetic fixer, this property offers significant potential for first-time buyers or investors to build immediate equity through minor renovations.
- Architectural Features
The interior boasts desirable design elements including vaulted ceilings and a cozy fireplace in the living room, creating a sense of volume and character.
- Privacy and Security
The home is fully enclosed by masonry walls and features a covered rear patio, providing a secure and private outdoor environment rarely found at this price point.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =5030, other record lot size in square feet = 5227.
- Solar Contract Complications
The property previously fell out of escrow due to an unacceptable solar panel contract, which may pose a financial or legal hurdle for the next buyer.
- Cosmetic Condition
As a fixer-upper, the home requires immediate investment in paint, flooring, or other updates, making it less ideal for buyers seeking a move-in-ready residence.
