Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1958, this property is 66 years old. The listing description explicitly states, 'Don’t let the pictures and curb appeal fool you,' and markets it as an 'investment opportunity' or 'flip,' which strongly suggests significant deferred maintenance and the need for substantial repairs. The exterior images show an unkempt yard with debris, further indicating neglect. Without any interior photos, it's highly probable that the kitchen, bathrooms, and major systems are original or severely outdated, requiring extensive renovation to meet modern standards and comfort. It falls squarely into the 'poor' category, needing substantial rehabilitation rather than minor updates.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Strong Investment Opportunity: Explicitly marketed as an 'incredible income opportunity' and 'terrific turnkey rental property' suitable for investors, flips, or owner-occupied, highlighting its potential for return.
Strategic Location: Situated in the 'heart of El Cajon' within an 'up and coming neighborhood' with significant 'growth opportunity,' emphasizing future appreciation and desirability.
Walkable to Amenities: Offers convenient 'walking distance to great parks, schools and so much more,' enhancing lifestyle appeal for residents.
Highly-Rated Schools Nearby: Benefits from close proximity to top-rated schools like Grossmont High School (0.15 miles, rating 7) and Murdock Elementary (1.4 miles, rating 8), a strong draw for families.
Generous Lot Size: A 7,473 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space, offering potential for landscaping, expansion, or creating desirable outdoor living areas.
Cons
Potential Overpricing: The listing price of $800,000 is 12% above the estimated property value of $698,019.72, suggesting it may be overpriced relative to current market valuations.
Implied Poor Condition/Curb Appeal: The listing description explicitly warns, 'Don’t let the pictures and curb appeal fool you,' indicating the property likely requires significant cosmetic and/or structural improvements.
Property Age: Built in 1958, the property is over 60 years old, which may imply outdated systems, potential for deferred maintenance, and higher renovation costs for modernizing.
