Condition Analysis

Fair
TeardownExcellent
Property is moderate renovation needed.
While the property is well-maintained and move-in ready, the 1928 structure features renovations that appear dated (likely 15-30 years old), specifically noted in the kitchen's tile countertops and older cabinetry style. It meets the criteria for 'Fair' as it is functional but requires cosmetic updates to align with modern standards.

CONSRISKS & DEFICIENCIES
