More Insights

Built in 1985 (41 years old).
Condition: Built in 1985, this condo is well-maintained and functional, but the interior, especially the kitchen and bathrooms, shows significant signs of being outdated. The kitchen features older appliances (except for a newer dishwasher), laminate countertops, wood-trimmed cabinets, a mirrored backsplash, and a dated fluorescent light fixture. Bathrooms have tiled countertops, white vanity cabinets, and Hollywood-style strip lighting, all indicative of an older aesthetic. While clean and 'rental ready,' these areas would require minor to moderate updates to meet current buyer expectations and modern styles. The carpet and wallpaper in bedrooms also contribute to the dated feel, aligning with the 'aged but maintained' and 'functional but show signs of being outdated' criteria for a 'Fair' score.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Views: The condo offers stunning golf course, lake, pool, fountain, desert, and mountain views from multiple rooms and the patio, significantly enhancing its appeal.
Strong Rental Income Potential: This property is turnkey furnished, rental-ready, and boasts an outstanding, documented short-term rental history on platforms like VRBO/Airbnb, making it an attractive investment.
Comprehensive Country Club Amenities: Owners benefit from extensive amenities including a 27-hole PGA golf course, over 35 pools/spas, tennis, pickleball, a fitness center, and a full-service spa, all covered by the HOA.
Prime Gated Community Location: Located within the secure, guard-gated Desert Princess Country Club, the property is just minutes from Downtown Palm Springs, offering convenience and prestige.
Dual Master Suites & Direct Pool Access: The home features two spacious ensuite master bedrooms on opposite ends for privacy, each with walk-in closets, and direct access to an adjacent heated pool and spa.

Cons

Substantial Monthly Association Fees: The HOA fee of $954.00 per month is considerably high, which, despite comprehensive inclusions, could impact affordability and deter some potential buyers.
Land Lease Structure: The property operates under a land lease, extending until 2069, which, while low at $160.50/month, represents a less conventional ownership model compared to fee simple and may be a drawback for some.
Recent Price Adjustment: A recent price reduction from $299,000 to $289,000 could suggest the property has experienced longer market time or was initially overpriced, potentially indicating a need for further negotiation.
