More Insights
Built in 1972 (53 years old).
Condition: Built in 1972, this property is over 50 years old. While it appears to have 'great bones' and some cosmetic updates like laminate flooring and fresh paint in the living areas, the overall style is significantly dated. The absence of images for the kitchen and bathrooms is a strong indicator that these critical areas are in original or very outdated condition, likely requiring substantial renovation. Visible elements like the popcorn ceiling and older built-in cabinets further support the need for significant modernization. The property's systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) are also likely original or very old, requiring substantial investment to meet current standards, as suggested by the listing's own weakness analysis.

Cons
Age of Property & Potential for Updates: Built in 1972, the property is older, suggesting that systems and interior finishes may be dated and could require significant investment for modernization to meet contemporary standards.
Single Bathroom & Modest Square Footage: With only one bathroom for a two-bedroom unit and a modest 996 sqft, the property may feel constrained for some buyers, potentially impacting functionality and appeal for multiple occupants.
Recent Price Reduction & Ongoing HOA Fees: A recent price reduction from $695,000 to $650,000 suggests the property may have been initially overpriced or is facing market challenges. Additionally, the $426 monthly HOA fee represents a significant ongoing cost.
