Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1974, this property is 50 years old. While the living area features updated laminate flooring and fresh paint, the kitchen and bathroom show signs of renovations that are likely 15-25 years old. The kitchen has dated light wood cabinets, speckled granite countertops, and standard appliances. The bathroom features a cultured marble vanity and an older strip light fixture. These areas are functional but aesthetically outdated, requiring minor updates to meet current styles and standards. The property is well-maintained but has not undergone a full recent renovation.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Significant Value Proposition: The property is listed at $265,000, notably below recent comparable sales of identical floor plans in the same complex (ranging from $311,000 to $320,000), presenting an exceptional investment opportunity.
Robust Community Amenities: Residents benefit from a range of amenities including a pool, spa, shared laundry facilities, and dedicated pet walking grounds, enhancing the overall living experience.
Desirable Unit-Specific Features: As a first-floor unit, it boasts a large private patio and an oversized primary bedroom complete with a huge walk-in closet, adding comfort and appeal.
Comprehensive HOA Inclusions: The monthly HOA fee covers essential services such as water, trash service, exterior maintenance, and common area upkeep, simplifying resident budgeting and maintenance responsibilities.
Established & Friendly Community: The property is situated within a described 'friendly and safe community,' contributing to a positive and secure living environment.
Cons
Short Sale Transaction Complexity: The sale is a short sale, explicitly stating it is 'subject to final approval' from the mortgage holder, which can lead to extended closing timelines and potential transaction uncertainties.
High Monthly HOA Fee: A monthly association fee of $530 is substantial for a 1-bedroom, 709 sqft condominium, potentially impacting affordability and long-term ownership costs.
Age of Property: Built in 1974, the condominium is 50 years old, which may imply older infrastructure, potential for deferred maintenance, or dated interior finishes compared to newer constructions.
