Condition Analysis

OVERALL CONDITION SCORE

Excellent
TeardownExcellent

Property is new construction or fully renovated.

Although built in 1999, the property has undergone extensive recent renovations that align with the 'excellent' criteria. The kitchen and all bathrooms have been fully modernized with high-end finishes like quartz countertops, floating vanities, and designer tile. Most significantly, all major mechanical systems—including two Bosch A/C units, furnaces, and the water heater—were replaced in 2024, ensuring the home functions like new construction with no deferred maintenance.

PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES

  • Modernized Infrastructure

    The property features significant 2024 mechanical upgrades, including new Bosch A/C units, Rheem furnaces, and a new water heater, ensuring immediate energy efficiency and reduced maintenance costs.

  • Premium Kitchen & Bath Remodels

    The home boasts high-end finishes including quartz countertops, stainless double wall ovens, and a spa-inspired primary bath with a dual-head rimless glass shower and underlit floating vanities.

  • Climate-Controlled Garage

    The extended 2-car plus golf cart garage is a standout feature, equipped with epoxy flooring, built-in storage, and its own dedicated A/C unit installed in 2024.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES

  • Age-Restricted Community

    Located in Sun City Palm Desert, the property is subject to 55+ age restrictions, which limits the potential buyer pool to a specific demographic.

  • Recurring HOA Expenses

    The monthly association fee of $398 represents a permanent carrying cost that may be a consideration for buyers on a fixed budget.

  • Original Construction Era

    While extensively upgraded, the 1999 build date means some core structural elements and floor plan configurations may reflect older design trends compared to new construction.
