Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Excellent
TeardownExcellent

Property is new construction or fully renovated.

Although originally built in 1953, this property has undergone an extensive and high-quality renovation within the last 5 years, specifically designed for the short-term rental market. The interior features polished concrete flooring, a modern-retro kitchen with premium appliances and open shelving, updated designer light fixtures, and a fully remodeled bathroom. The property shows no signs of deferred maintenance and meets current aesthetic and functional standards, making it a turnkey, design-forward residence.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • High Available Lot Utilization

    The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 13500, living area = 609.

  • Prime Location

    Situated within walking distance to downtown Joshua Tree's shops and dining, and minutes from iconic hiking trails like Coyote Hole, offering exceptional convenience and lifestyle appeal.

  • Short-Term Rental Potential

    Currently operating as a part-time short-term rental, this property provides an immediate income-generating opportunity for investors or second-home buyers looking to offset costs.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Small Footprint

    With only 609 square feet of living space and a single bedroom, the home's compact size may limit its appeal for long-term residents or those requiring more interior room.

  • Lower School Ratings

    The assigned local schools have relatively low ratings (3/10 and 4/10), which could be a drawback for families prioritizing educational performance in their home search.
