Pros & Cons
Pros
Investment/First-Time Buyer Opportunity: Explicitly described as 'perfect for a first-time buyer or an investor,' offering a clear path to build equity through renovation.
Generous Lot Size: The 6,061 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space for landscaping, potential expansion, or creating a desirable entertainment area.
Desirable Location: Located in Downey, a well-regarded Southern California city known for its community and served by the reputable Downey Unified High School District.
Renovation Upside: Being an 'original' property that 'will need updating' presents a significant opportunity for a buyer to customize and add substantial value.
Functional Bedroom Count: The 3-bedroom configuration offers practical living space suitable for families or individuals needing extra rooms.
Cons
Extensive Renovation Required: The property is explicitly described as 'original,' a 'fixer,' and needing 'TLC,' indicating substantial updates and investment will be necessary.
Limited Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for a three-bedroom home, it may not meet the needs of modern families and could be a functional limitation.
Aging Infrastructure: Built in 1950, the property likely has older systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) that may require costly repairs or complete replacement.
