Condition Rating
Poor

Built in 1951, the property's kitchen and bathrooms are significantly outdated, appearing to be either original or last renovated 30-50+ years ago. The kitchen features dated laminate countertops, older white appliances, and linoleum flooring. The bathroom also shows very dated fixtures and finishes. While the exterior appears maintained and some living areas have hardwood floors, the critical interior spaces require substantial rehabilitation to meet current quality standards and tenant expectations. The property is functional but would be considered very uncomfortable by modern living standards without extensive renovations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Investment Potential: As a 4-unit residential income property (quadruplex), it offers stable and diversified income streams, appealing to both investors and owner-users.
Prime Location & Accessibility: Strategically located on a prominent corner lot in downtown San Leandro, providing excellent visibility, a quiet neighborhood feel, and superb access to local amenities, shops, restaurants, BART (±0.7 miles), and major commuter routes (I-580, I-880).
Tenant-Centric Amenities: Features a detached 4-car garage, additional storage, individual washer/dryer hookups, and separate front/rear entrances for each unit, enhancing tenant convenience and appeal.
Spacious Unit Layouts: Each one-bedroom apartment offers spacious kitchen and living areas, providing comfortable living spaces for tenants.
Strong School Proximity: Located near multiple highly-rated public schools, including Washington Elementary (5/6), John Muir Middle (5/6), and San Leandro High (5/6), which is attractive for families.

Cons

Property Age & Potential Updates: Built in 1951, the property may require significant capital expenditure for system updates (e.g., plumbing, electrical, HVAC) or deferred maintenance, as no recent renovations are specified.
Limited Unit Diversity: Comprising exclusively one-bedroom units, the property's tenant pool may be limited, potentially excluding larger households or those seeking multi-bedroom options.
Absence of Modern Comfort Systems: The description does not mention modern HVAC or central air conditioning, which could be a drawback for tenant comfort during warmer months and may require future investment.
