Condition Analysis
OVERALL CONDITION SCORE
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property, built in 2001, features updated flooring and fresh paint throughout, making it aesthetically move-in ready. However, the kitchen, with its tile counters, tile center island, and white appliances, along with the main bathroom's gold-framed shower enclosure and older vanity style, show clear signs of being outdated. While functional and well-maintained, these areas would likely require minor updates to meet current buyer preferences and modern standards.
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 = 8276, living area = 1740.
- Prime Location & Accessibility
Situated in the desirable La Pasada neighborhood, offering spectacular proximity to Downtown Palm Springs, Palm Springs Airport, and Downtown Cathedral City.
- Broad Buyer & Investment Appeal
Positioned as an excellent opportunity for first-time home buyers, starter families, or investors, with strong rental potential and low maintenance.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- Kitchen Finishes May Require Update
The kitchen features tile counters and a tile center island, which some buyers might consider dated and prefer to update to more contemporary materials.
- Lack of Specified Recent Upgrades
The description does not detail any recent renovations or significant updates since its 2001 construction, suggesting potential future investment for modernization.
- Recurring Association Fee
While modest, the property is subject to a monthly association fee of $49.20, which is an ongoing cost for homeowners.
