SUMMARY
This property presents a High-Potential Investment Opportunity with a List Price of $878,000—positioned well below the $825,542 Fair Market Value by -6%. While the property is currently priced above the estimated market value, the partially converted basement with a separate entrance offers significant ADU and rental potential.
