More Insights

Built in 1996 (30 years old).
Condition: This property, built in 1996, consists of two detached homes that have undergone substantial recent improvements totaling over $94,000. Major systems like the furnace, AC, and copper lines have been updated within the last 5 years (2020-2023), with new roofs and water heater scheduled for 2025-2026. The front unit (5829 Oak Ave) features new vinyl plank flooring, fresh paint, and a modern walk-in shower. While its kitchen has custom laminate countertops and older white cabinets, it is clean and functional. The rear unit (5827 Oak Ave) is well-maintained with clean carpet and tile, though its kitchen and bathrooms retain a more dated style with wood cabinets and tile countertops. Despite some dated aesthetics in the kitchens and older bathrooms, the extensive updates to critical systems and the overall clean, move-in ready condition of both units, as highlighted by the listing's 'above-average condition' and 'reduced near-term capital expenditure requirements,' align with the 'Good' score criteria.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Dual Income Potential: The property features two detached residences on one lot, offering significant and immediate rental income potential, ideal for investors or owner-occupants seeking supplemental income.
Extensive Recent Capital Improvements: Over $94,000 in documented upgrades across both homes, including major systems (furnace, AC, water heater) and structural components, significantly reduces near-term capital expenditure for a new owner.
Prime Location with Desirable Amenities: Centrally located in Temple City, offering convenient access to shopping, dining, transportation, and situated within the highly-rated Temple City School District.
Stable Tenancy and Immediate Cash Flow: The rear unit has a long-term tenant with a lease in place through mid-2027, ensuring stable income, while the front unit is ready for immediate rental, providing strong cash flow potential.
Generous Lot Size: An expansive 9,178 sq. ft. lot provides ample space, potential for privacy between the two units, and opportunities for outdoor living or future enhancements.

Cons

Ambiguous Future-Dated Information: The listing includes future dates for significant improvements (new roofs, water heater in 2025/2026) and the on-market date, which requires clarification to avoid buyer confusion regarding the current property condition and availability.
Limited Immediate Owner-Occupancy Options: With one unit tenant-occupied until mid-2027 and the other currently for rent, an owner-occupant's flexibility to choose their preferred unit or occupy both is significantly restricted in the short term.
Increased Management Complexity: Operating two separate detached rental units, each with its own maintenance needs, tenant considerations, and lease agreements, presents a higher level of management complexity compared to a single-family residence.
