Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1906, this triplex is significantly outdated and in need of substantial repairs and rehabilitation. The description itself notes it's 'in need of some TLC,' which is an understatement given the visible condition. The kitchens and bathrooms are in poor shape; one kitchen appears to be a makeshift setup with no proper cabinetry or appliances beyond a range, and the other features worn, dated cabinets and countertops. Popcorn ceilings, old light fixtures, worn flooring (laminate/wood and tile), and highly specific, dated paint colors (bright yellow, blue/purple, red) are prevalent throughout. There's no evidence of major renovations within the last 30-50 years, aligning with the 'Poor' criteria. While it has potential, it requires extensive work to be comfortable or safe for modern living.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Triplex: The property is a versatile triplex, offering significant rental income potential and flexibility for multi-family living or a pure investment strategy.
Prime Los Angeles Location: Situated in a 'lively, thriving neighborhood' with 'convenience and access to local amenities,' enhancing its appeal to both tenants and owners in a desirable market.
Spacious and Private Units: Features a 'generously sized' main house and 'equally spacious' 1-bedroom units, providing comfort and 'excellent privacy' for occupants, which is attractive to renters.
Investment Potential & Value-Add Opportunity: Described as 'full of potential' for those looking to 'create their own dream home or investment property,' indicating strong upside after renovation and modernization.
Motivated Seller & Price Adjustment: The recent price reduction from $745,000 to $715,000 and the 'Motivated Seller' status suggest a potential for negotiation and a favorable acquisition for a savvy buyer.
Cons
Extensive Renovation Required: Explicitly stated as 'in need of some TLC,' indicating that significant repairs, updates, and capital investment will be necessary to bring the property to its full potential.
Historic Property Challenges (Built 1906): Its age (1906) suggests potential for outdated infrastructure (plumbing, electrical, HVAC), lead paint, asbestos, and other costly issues common in very old homes, requiring specialized attention.
High Upfront Investment Beyond Purchase Price: The need for 'TLC' and the property's age imply substantial additional costs and time for renovation, which could be a significant barrier for buyers seeking a move-in ready property.
