More Insights
Built in 2007 (19 years old).
Condition: Despite being built in 2007, the property is explicitly described as being in 'distressed condition' and requires 'cash offers only,' indicating it won't qualify for traditional financing due to its state. The interior image provided shows an extremely cluttered, dirty, and potentially damaged living space, rendering it unlivable. The exterior and backyard are also severely neglected. While the structure may not be beyond repair, the property requires substantial repairs, cleaning, and rehabilitation to address significant defects and make it safe and comfortable, aligning with the 'Poor' condition criteria. The absence of kitchen and bathroom images, given the overall condition, suggests these critical areas are also likely in very poor shape and would require full renovation.
