More Insights

Built in 1902 (124 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1902, shows significant age on its exterior with some peeling paint. While the ground floor unit has been extensively renovated with modern kitchens (white shaker cabinets, new countertops, stainless steel range, subway tile backsplash, recessed lighting) and bathrooms (modern vanities, sinks, subway tile showers), the second unit appears to be less updated, as suggested by the dated checkered flooring in some images and the lack of renovation details in the description for that unit. Electrical panels have been upgraded, which is a positive, but the overall age of the structure and the mixed condition of the units (one excellent, one likely dated) prevent it from reaching a 'Good' score. It requires updates to the second unit and exterior to bring the entire property to a consistent modern standard.

Pros & Cons

Significant Value-Add Opportunity & Vacancy: The property is 100% vacant, offering immediate potential for rent optimization, strategic renovations, and tenant selection, maximizing its investment value.
Strong Investment Potential: Proforma figures indicate an attractive CAP Rate over 7% and a good 10% Cash-on-cash return, highlighting its strong income-generating capabilities for investors.
Prime Location for Rental Demand: Strategically located within walking distance to Downtown Pomona and minutes from Cal Poly Pomona and Claremont Colleges, ensuring consistent high demand for rental units, particularly student housing.
Development & Expansion Potential: Situated on a large 7,802 SF C3 zoned lot with ample backyard space, the property offers significant potential for adding ADUs (Accessory Dwelling Units) and utilizing existing alley access for additional parking, creating future income streams.
Upgraded Unit & Separate Electrical: The ground floor 4-bedroom unit has been fully upgraded with modern finishes and a new kitchen, enhancing its appeal. The property also benefits from 3 separate electric meters and upgraded electrical panels, simplifying utility management for electricity.

Cons

Age of Property & Potential Deferred Maintenance: Built in 1902, the property's age suggests potential for significant deferred maintenance, outdated systems (e.g., plumbing, HVAC not mentioned), or structural issues that may require substantial capital expenditure.
Communal Bathroom Configuration: The ground floor 4-bedroom unit features a communal bathroom with multiple stalls, which, while functional for student housing, may limit its appeal to a broader tenant base or families, potentially affecting rental flexibility.
Master Meter for Water and Gas: The presence of a master meter for water and gas means these utilities are likely paid by the landlord, potentially impacting net operating income or requiring complex tenant allocation and billing systems.
