Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1903, this property is over 120 years old. While the exterior has been freshly painted, there are no indications of recent major renovations to the interior or critical systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC). The listing's own analysis highlights that it 'likely requires significant updates to major systems' and that 'interior finishes and amenities may be outdated.' The mention of a 'kitchinet' further suggests basic and potentially very old kitchen facilities. The sidewalk also shows significant wear. This property requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation to bring it to modern standards and ensure major components are functional and safe.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Income Property Potential: The property is explicitly marketed as an 'owner occupied income property' and 'Residential Income' type, offering significant potential for rental revenue from multiple units (Triplex/Quadruplex).
High Rental Demand: Located in an area with 'High rental demand from USC students and faculty,' ensuring consistent occupancy and strong rental income potential.
Excellent Location & Accessibility: Offers 'Easy access to USC, DOWNTOWN L.A. 110 Fwy and 10 FWY,' making it highly desirable for commuters and students.
Dedicated Parking: A 'Private driveway provides 3 parking spaces in the rear of property,' a valuable amenity in a dense urban area like Los Angeles.
Exterior Condition: The 'Freshly painted exterior' suggests good curb appeal and reduced immediate exterior maintenance for a new owner.
Cons
Age of Property & System Updates: Built in 1903, the property likely requires significant updates to major systems (plumbing, electrical, HVAC) and structural components, leading to potential high renovation costs.
Unit Count Discrepancy & Legal Status: There is a contradiction between the description stating 'Tax record shows as Triplex' and the 'sub_type' listed as 'Quadruplex,' with only two distinct units described. This ambiguity requires clarification and could affect zoning, financing, and legal rental capacity.
Interior Condition & Modernization: While the exterior is painted, the property's age suggests that interior finishes and amenities may be outdated, potentially requiring substantial investment to attract premium tenants and maximize rental income.
