More Insights
Built in 1944 (81 years old).
Condition: The property, built in 1944, has undergone significant recent renovations, including updated flooring, kitchen cabinets, and backsplash, all described as being in 'superb condition.' While the kitchen appliances are functional, they are basic and appear older, and the cooling system relies on wall AC units rather than central air, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. However, the overall condition is move-in ready with no immediate renovations required, aligning with a 'Good' score.

Pros & Cons
Pros
Income-Generating Property: This duplex is explicitly marketed as an income-generating opportunity with both units currently leased, providing immediate cash flow for an investor.
Excellent Condition & Recent Upgrades: The property boasts a roof, AC units, flooring, and cabinets all in superb condition, indicating recent investments and meticulous maintenance, reducing immediate capital expenditure for a buyer.
Strategic Location: Centrally located near downtown, the Marine Corps Base, and Joshua Tree National Park, ensuring strong and consistent rental demand from military personnel, tourists, and local workers.
Enhanced Tenant Privacy: As a single-story duplex with no common walls, it offers superior privacy and reduced noise transfer between units compared to typical duplexes, enhancing tenant satisfaction.
Fully Furnished Units: Both units are fully furnished, which can attract a wider range of tenants, command higher rental rates, and facilitate quicker tenant turnover, especially for short-term or military rentals.
Cons
Age of Property: Built in 1944, the property's older underlying structure, despite recent upgrades, may present unforeseen maintenance challenges or higher insurance costs in the long term.
Small Unit Size: Each unit is a 1 bed, 1 bath, approximately 528 sqft, which limits the potential tenant pool to singles or couples and may cap the maximum achievable rental income.
Wall AC Units: While providing comfort, the reliance on wall AC units rather than central air conditioning may be less efficient and less desirable for some tenants, particularly in the desert climate of 29 Palms.
