Desert Hot Springs, California 92240
This Value-Add Desert Hilltop Asset is listed at $524,900, offering a strategic entry into an elevated neighborhood known for sweeping mountain views. While the list price exceeds the $469,145 Fair Market Value, the property’s Fair Condition Rating provides a significant opportunity for forced appreciation through renovation. Built in 2005, the 2,100-square-foot interior features a spacious 4-bedroom layout on a large 9,148 sq ft lot. With a leased solar system and no HOA, the home’s modern construction and scenic location offer long-term upside. This is a high-potential acquisition for Fix-and-Flip Investors or Owner-Occupants.
