Pros & Cons
Pros
Move-in Ready Condition: The condo is beautifully refreshed with newer flooring, a bright kitchen, and updated finishes throughout, offering a truly move-in-ready experience with 'nothing left to do but live'.
Low-Maintenance Living: Designed for low-maintenance living, with exterior maintenance covered by the HOA, making it appealing for busy individuals, first-time buyers, or downsizers.
Private Outdoor Space: Features a private backyard, which is a significant advantage for a condominium, perfect for relaxing or entertaining.
Functional Layout & Storage: Offers a functional floor plan with spacious bedrooms and generous closet storage, enhancing comfort and practicality for residents.
Convenient Location: Boasts convenient access to shopping, dining, parks, and commuter routes in San Jose, providing excellent accessibility and lifestyle benefits.
Cons
High HOA Fees: The monthly association fee of $480 is substantial, adding a significant recurring cost to homeownership and potentially impacting affordability or investment returns.
Age of Building: Built in 1980, the property is over 40 years old. While cosmetically updated, major building systems may be original or nearing the end of their useful life, potentially leading to future repair costs.
Condominium Restrictions: As a condominium, residents are subject to HOA rules and regulations, which can limit personal modifications, pet policies, and overall autonomy compared to single-family homes, and shared walls may lead to noise transfer.
