Condition Rating
Poor
This property, built in 1954, is 70 years old. While the exterior appears reasonably maintained in the provided image, the listing explicitly states 'value-add potential' and restricts interior inspection until an accepted offer. This lack of transparency, combined with the property's age and the analysis noting 'outdated systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and potential for deferred maintenance or significant renovation costs,' strongly indicates that the interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, will require substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet current standards. These are not minor updates but significant renovations, aligning with a 'poor' condition score.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Investment Opportunity: Explicitly marketed as an 'excellent investment opportunity' with existing rental income and value-add potential.
Dual Income Property: Comprises a front single-family residence (3 BD / 2 BA) and a rear garage conversion (1 BD / 1 BA), offering two separate income-generating units.
Existing Rental Income: Both units are currently tenant-occupied, providing immediate and stable cash flow for an investor.
Value-Add Potential: The property description highlights opportunities for future improvements or optimizations to increase its overall value and rental yield.
Convenient Location: Strategically located near parks, schools, shopping, and major freeways, enhancing its appeal to tenants and overall marketability.
Cons
MLS Listing Discrepancy: Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 1700, other record living area = 1130. Bedroom count discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing bedroom count = 4, other record bedroom count = 3.
Limited Due Diligence Access: Interior inspection is only permitted upon an accepted offer, which significantly restricts a buyer's ability to fully assess the property's condition prior to commitment.
Property Age: Built in 1954, the property is 70 years old, suggesting a higher likelihood of outdated systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and potential for deferred maintenance or significant renovation costs.
Unverified Garage Conversion Status: The legality and adherence to current building codes for the rear garage conversion are not specified, potentially posing a risk for unpermitted work or future compliance issues.
