Condition Rating
Good
Built in 1986, this property has undergone significant recent updates, including a remodeled interior with new major appliances (dishwasher, water heater, refrigerator, washer/dryer) and a serviced HVAC system, making it move-in ready. The exterior was also recently upgraded by the HOA. While the kitchen boasts new appliances, the green cabinet color and mosaic backsplash are a very specific aesthetic choice, and the cabinets appear to be refreshed older units rather than brand new custom installations. The bathrooms are clean and functional with updated fixtures, but the vanity styles are not indicative of a full, high-end modern renovation. The consistent laminate flooring is in good condition. Overall, the home is well-maintained with functional systems and recent updates, fitting the 'Good' condition criteria, as it requires no immediate renovation and major systems are within their expected lifespan.

Cons

Land Lease Property: The property is subject to a land lease, which, despite being extended to 2069, means buyers do not own the land outright and may face specific financing challenges or future lease renewal considerations.
High Monthly HOA Fees: The monthly HOA fee of $954.00 is substantial, which, while inclusive of many amenities and services, represents a significant recurring cost for potential owners.
Recent Price Reduction: The property has undergone a price reduction from its original listing price of $419,000 to $399,000, which could indicate a potential overpricing issue or slower market interest at the initial price point.
