Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is move-in ready and benefits from recent cosmetic updates such as new laminate flooring and fresh interior paint. However, it retains significant original 1973 elements; the kitchen features dated tile countertops and wood cabinetry with visible wear, and the bathrooms show only partial updates. While the home is well-maintained and functional, the core systems and styles in the kitchen and bathrooms are outdated and do not meet the criteria for a fully renovated or modern home.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Aging Infrastructure

- School District Ratings
The local elementary and high schools carry lower performance ratings, which could be a deterrent for families and impact long-term appreciation.
