Condition Rating
Good
Despite being built in 1973, the property has undergone significant recent renovations, including new kitchen appliances, cabinets, and countertops, as well as a modern bathroom vanity and a new sliding glass door. The interior appears fresh, clean, and move-in ready with no immediate renovation required. While these updates are substantial, the overall age of the building suggests that not all major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical behind walls) have been fully replaced, which would be necessary for an 'Excellent' rating.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Modernized Interior: The unit has been recently updated with new appliances, kitchen cabinets and countertops, a modern bathroom vanity, and a new sliding glass door, offering a fresh and appealing living space.
Excellent Location & Accessibility: Strategically located just steps away from shopping, dining, salons, and entertainment, and only 15 minutes from major hubs like Newport Beach, Costa Mesa, Santa Ana, and Anaheim Hills.
Immediate Rental Income Potential: Currently tenant-occupied on a month-to-month lease at $2,000/month, with the tenant expressing interest in long-term residency, making it an attractive option for investors seeking immediate cash flow.
Desirable Community: Situated in the 'highly desired community of Quail Meadows,' indicating a well-regarded and attractive living environment.
Convenient Parking: Offers convenient parking options for both residents and guests, a valuable amenity in condominium living.
Cons
High Association Fees: A monthly association fee of $367 adds a significant recurring cost to ownership, which could impact overall affordability and return on investment.
Small Unit Size: With only 753 sqft, 1 bedroom, and 1 bathroom, the unit's compact size may limit its appeal to a broader range of buyers, particularly those seeking more living space.
Building Age: Constructed in 1973, the building is over 50 years old, which could imply potential for higher maintenance costs for common areas or necessitate future special assessments, despite recent interior renovations.
