Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1956, this property is 68 years old. The listing description is extremely sparse ('Coming Soon 3 Bed 2 Bath') and provides no details about any renovations or updates. Only one exterior image is provided, which shows a maintained facade but offers no insight into the interior condition, especially the kitchen and bathrooms. The complete absence of interior photos and renovation information, given the property's age, strongly suggests that the interior, including major systems and finishes, is likely original or very outdated and would require substantial repairs and rehabilitation to meet modern living standards.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Desirable Layout: The 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom configuration is highly sought after by families and offers practical living space.
Generous Lot Size: A 6,033 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space for recreation, potential landscaping, or future expansion possibilities like an ADU, which adds significant value.
Established Whittier Location: The property is located in Whittier, a well-regarded city known for its community, schools, and amenities, contributing to stable property values.
Single-Family Residence: As a detached single-family home, it offers privacy and land ownership, which are strong draws in the current market.
Proximity to Strong Comparable: The property is located very close (0.07 miles) to a recently listed comparable (9929 Balmoral St) with the same bed/bath/sqft/year built, providing a direct and relevant market comparison.
Cons
Sparse Property Description: The 'Coming Soon' status and minimal description ('3 Bed 2 Bath') provide no details on condition, upgrades, or specific features, making it challenging for buyers to assess value and generating uncertainty.
Significant Discrepancy with Estimated Value: The list price of $720,000 is considerably higher (approx. 28%) than the property's estimated value of $560,745.12, suggesting potential overpricing or a lack of disclosed value-adding features.
Potential for Outdated Features/Systems: Built in 1956, the property may have original systems (electrical, plumbing, HVAC) and finishes that could require significant investment for modernization, especially given the lack of upgrade details in the description.
