Condition Rating
Fair
Built in 1970, this property shows signs of an older renovation, likely 15-30 years ago. The kitchen features dated white appliances, dark cabinets, and older countertops. Bathrooms also present with dated vanities, fixtures, and tile work. While the laminate flooring in some areas appears newer and the property is clean and functional, the overall aesthetic and key components like kitchen and bath are outdated and would require cosmetic updates to meet current standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Investment Opportunity: The property explicitly allows short-term rentals, offering significant income potential for investors seeking executive short-term, monthly, or long-term income streams.
Prime Coastal Location: Situated in Carlsbad within the 'sought after Cortez Building South Side,' providing access to a desirable resort lifestyle and a highly regarded community.
Versatile Usage Options: Ideal for various buyer profiles, including full-time residents, second-home owners, or investors looking to capitalize on its rental flexibility.
Motivated Seller & Value Proposition: A recent price reduction from $845,000 to $810,000 suggests a motivated seller and presents a more attractive entry point for potential buyers.
Strong Local Amenities & Schools: Located in an area with highly-rated schools and a 'resort lifestyle,' enhancing the overall appeal and potential for appreciation.
Cons
Building Age & Potential for Updates: Constructed in 1970, the property is over 50 years old, which may imply older infrastructure and the potential need for significant renovations or maintenance beyond cosmetic updates.
Substantial Monthly Association Fee: The $490.00 monthly association fee represents a considerable recurring expense that could impact affordability and net returns for owners or investors.
Compact Square Footage: At 796 square feet for a 1-bedroom unit, the living space is relatively small, which might limit its appeal to buyers desiring more expansive accommodations.
