Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Affordability: Listed at $149,000, this condo presents a highly accessible entry point into the Sacramento real estate market, appealing to budget-conscious buyers and offering significant value.
Low-Maintenance Living: The HOA covers exterior upkeep and common areas, providing a hassle-free lifestyle and reducing homeowner responsibilities for maintenance.
Strong Investment/First-Time Buyer Appeal: Explicitly identified as an excellent option for investors seeking steady rental potential and first-time buyers looking for an affordable entry into homeownership.
Convenient Urban Location: Strategically situated near public transit, shopping centers, and freeway access, enhancing daily convenience and connectivity for residents.
Updated Interior Finishes: The property boasts updated finishes and a comfortable layout, offering a move-in ready condition and a modern aesthetic for new occupants.
Cons
Relatively High HOA Fee: A monthly association fee of $391 is substantial, especially in relation to the property's low list price, impacting overall monthly housing costs.
Aging Building Structure: Constructed in 1970, the building is over 50 years old, which may lead to concerns about aging infrastructure or potential future maintenance not covered by the HOA.
Limited Bathroom Count: The presence of only one bathroom for a two-bedroom unit could be a practical inconvenience for occupants or limit appeal to certain buyer demographics.
