SUMMARY
Estimated Market Value
Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is extensive renovation needed.
This 1937 property is a classic fixer-upper requiring a total gut rehabilitation. The kitchen is severely outdated with significant wear and potential smoke/grease damage, the electrical system shows heavy rust and age, and the detached garage and yard are in a state of neglect. The listing explicitly describes the home as a 'blank slate' and 'true fixer-upper' needing a complete transformation, indicating it is currently in a condition that requires substantial repair to be comfortably livable.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Prime Location
Situated on a desirable, tree-lined street in a sought-after San Gabriel neighborhood, offering strong long-term value and curb appeal.
- ADU & Expansion Potential
The generous 6,550 sq. ft. lot provides ample space for an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), a large garden, or a significant home expansion.
- Investment Upside
As a 'blank slate' fixer-upper, this property offers immense potential for investors or visionaries to build equity through a custom transformation.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Extensive Renovation Required
The property is a 'true fixer-upper' being sold in as-is condition, requiring a substantial capital investment for a complete overhaul.
- Limited Existing Footprint
With only 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom in 1,071 sq. ft., the current layout is small and will likely require reconfiguration to meet modern buyer expectations.
- High Entry Price for Condition
At a list price of $998,000 for a total rehabilitation project, the initial cost may tighten profit margins for traditional fix-and-flip investors.
