Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1924, this property shows signs of regular maintenance and some piecemeal updates, but not a comprehensive renovation. The kitchens feature some newer stainless steel appliances and granite countertops, but the cabinetry is a mix of styles (white uppers, dark lowers), and the overall aesthetic is dated. Bathrooms are functional with neutral tiling but have older vanities and basic fixtures. Flooring is a mix of hardwood and wood-look laminate. The presence of wall heaters and lack of central AC indicate older systems. While livable, the property requires significant updates to modernize its style and major components, fitting the 'Fair' condition criteria.
The property features two separate 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom units, providing immediate rental income potential or an ideal setup for owner-occupancy with supplementary income.
Conveniently located near major attractions like the LA Memorial Coliseum, Downtown Los Angeles, SoFi Stadium, and LAX, offering high demand for rentals and strong appreciation potential.
Easy access to major freeways, shopping, dining, and public transportation enhances tenant desirability and overall property convenience.
Built in 1924, the property likely features older systems and finishes, which may necessitate significant capital expenditure for renovations or deferred maintenance to meet modern standards.
While expansion potential is noted, the 'buyer to verify' clause indicates that the feasibility, costs, and regulatory approvals are not confirmed, adding a layer of due diligence for prospective buyers.
The description does not specify any recent upgrades or modern amenities within the units, suggesting they may be in original or dated condition, potentially impacting rental rates or requiring immediate renovation.
