Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1926, this duplex shows signs of age consistent with a 'Fair' rating. While the exterior appears maintained, the lack of mentioned interior renovations and the 'vintage infrastructure' note suggest that systems and finishes are likely outdated. It is functional and move-in ready for tenants but requires modernization to meet current market standards for 'Good' or 'Excellent' condition.
As a residential income duplex featuring two 2-bedroom units, this property offers excellent versatility for investors seeking rental yield or owner-occupants looking to offset their mortgage with a tenant-occupied unit.
The property is exceptionally well-located for families, situated within walking distance (under 0.5 miles) of several schools, including the highly-rated Willow Elementary and South Gate Senior High School.
The inclusion of garages at the rear of the property is a significant value-add in this high-density area, providing secure parking and additional storage space which is often a top priority for local renters.
Built in 1926, the property may require substantial capital expenditure for modernizing aging systems such as plumbing, electrical, and roofing to ensure long-term habitability and code compliance.
The current list price of $825,000 represents a steep increase from its 2018 sale price of $375,000, which may challenge the appraisal value or require a higher cap rate to justify the investment for seasoned buyers.
