More Insights

Built in 1977 (49 years old).
Condition: Built in 1977, this duplex has received significant updates, particularly in Unit 7449, which is described as 'freshly updated and remodeled.' The HVAC systems were replaced in 2017/2018, falling within the 5-15 year renovation window for major systems. Images show new gray carpeting, fresh light gray paint throughout, and updated kitchen countertops and flooring. While the kitchen cabinets are painted white and have a somewhat dated style, and some appliances (range, refrigerator) appear older, the overall impression is clean and functional. The bathroom is clean and well-maintained but features an older vanity, mirror, and shower doors, indicating it hasn't undergone a modern renovation. Despite these dated elements, the property is move-in ready with no immediate renovation required, and major systems are within their expected lifespan, aligning with a 'Good' condition score.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Income-Generating Duplex: This property is explicitly marketed as a duplex investment opportunity, offering two separate units with strong cash flow potential (estimated $1,950/month per unit) and flexible ownership options (live in one, rent the other, or rent both).
Turnkey & Well-Maintained Condition: Both residences are described as 'turnkey' and 'well-maintained,' with Unit 7449 having been freshly updated and remodeled, minimizing immediate capital expenditures for a new owner.
Recent HVAC Upgrades: The installation of brand-new HVAC systems in 2017 and 2018, which are professionally serviced, provides modern comfort, energy efficiency, and reduces a significant potential maintenance concern for years to come.
Desirable Location & Accessibility: Situated in a quiet cul-de-sac within Northridge Knolls, the property offers convenient access to top-rated schools, Sunrise Mall, major medical centers, parks, and direct freeway access, appealing to a wide range of tenants.

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 963, other record living area = 1874. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 2, other record bedroom count = 4.
Conflicting Square Footage Information: There is a significant discrepancy in the square footage; the property details list 963 sqft total, while the description states 'each a 937 sq. ft property,' which would imply a total of 1874 sqft. This requires immediate clarification for accurate valuation.
Conflicting Bedroom/Bathroom Count: The property details state 2 beds and 2 baths for the entire property, yet the description specifies 'Two fully separate, turnkey 2-bedroom, 1-bath residences,' suggesting a total of 4 beds and 2 baths. This inconsistency needs to be resolved.
Age of Property: Built in 1977, the property is over 45 years old. While well-maintained and updated, older construction can sometimes present unforeseen maintenance challenges or require more frequent updates compared to newer builds.
