Condition Analysis
See Full ReportOVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1947, this 77-year-old home is a probate sale being sold 'as-is'. While the bathroom shows some mid-range updates (vanity and glass shower), the listing description explicitly calls for 'elbow grease' and 'vision to update,' indicating the property is dated and requires repairs to meet modern standards.

- 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 = 7900, living area = 990.

- Prime Santa Clara Location

- Probate Sale Complexity
As a probate sale with a 15-day Notice of Proposed Action period, the transaction involves more complex legal procedures and potentially longer timelines than a standard residential sale.
