Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property is a triplex with a significant age split; the front unit dates to 1924 and is explicitly described as needing 'TLC,' while the two rear units were built in 2008. At nearly 20 years old, the newer units are entering a phase where systems and finishes become dated, and combined with the century-old front unit requiring repairs, the property fits the Fair criteria.
PROSSTRENGTHS & OPPORTUNITIES
- Great Schools
High School: Middle College High School (9/10).
- Immediate Income & Vacancy Flexibility
The property is delivered with two vacant units and one occupied unit, allowing an investor to set market rents immediately or an owner-occupant to move in while benefiting from existing cash flow.
- Modern Rear Units
While the front unit is vintage, the two rear units were constructed in 2008, offering more modern building standards and likely requiring less structural maintenance than typical 1920s income properties.
CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
- MLS Listing Discrepancy
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 5378, other record living area = 3400.
- Front Unit Condition
The 1924 front unit requires 'TLC' (Tender Loving Care), indicating that the buyer will need to budget for immediate renovation costs to maximize the property's value and rental appeal.
- Local School Ratings
The majority of the assigned public schools for this address have low performance ratings (ranging from 2 to 3), which may be a deterrent for long-term family tenants.
About 812 W Century
Great opportunity to own a triplex with 2 units to be delivered vacant and one tenant occupied and unit already generating rental income. Live in one unit and rent out the others, or add to your investment portfolio. The front unit needs some TLS, offering an opportunity to make it your own. The 2 rear units were built in 2008. Enjoy ample parking and outdoor space with each unit separately metered for ga, electricity and water. An excellent opportunity for first time homebuyers or investors looking to grow their portfolio!
