Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1962, this property has received recent cosmetic updates including new flooring, new paint, and a newer kitchen countertop/sink, making it clean and move-in ready. However, the kitchen cabinets, appliances (refrigerator, built-in oven), and bathroom vanity/fixtures appear to be from an older renovation, likely 15-30 years ago, showing signs of being outdated in style and function. While well-maintained, it requires minor updates to bring it to modern standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Extensive Community Amenities: The property is part of Leisure World, a senior community offering a vast array of amenities including a golf course, swimming pool, gym, multiple clubhouses, various sports courts, and essential services like a health care center and post office.
Move-in Ready Condition: Recent updates such as newer kitchen countertops/sink, new flooring, and new paint ensure the unit is clean and ready for immediate occupancy without requiring major renovations.
Secure Gated Community: Leisure World is a security-guard-gated community, providing residents with enhanced safety, privacy, and peace of mind.
Desirable Location: Located in Seal Beach, a sought-after coastal city in Southern California, offering a pleasant environment and convenient access to local attractions.
Dedicated Parking: The inclusion of a specific carport space (Carport 23-Space 6) provides convenient and dedicated parking for residents.
Cons
Stock Cooperative Ownership: The property is a Stock Cooperative, which means buyers purchase shares in a corporation that owns the property, rather than direct real estate. This can affect financing options, ownership rights, and the resale process compared to traditional condominiums or single-family homes.
High Monthly Association Fees: The association fee of $551.35 per month is substantial, adding a significant recurring cost to ownership, even considering the extensive amenities provided.
Limited Market Appeal: As a senior community (55+) and with a relatively small square footage of 750 sqft, the property's market appeal is restricted to a specific demographic, potentially limiting the pool of interested buyers.
