Pros & Cons
Pros
Exceptional Rental Income & Occupancy: The property boasts a proven track record of 'no vacancy' for the past 13 years, generating a strong $5600 monthly income, indicating high demand and a reliable income stream.
Prime University-Adjacent Location: Strategically located 'within a block from San Jose State university,' ensuring a consistent and robust pool of student tenants and sustained rental demand.
Modern Construction & Good Condition: Described as a '15-year-old single family built in 2010' and in 'great condition,' suggesting lower immediate maintenance costs and a more contemporary living experience.
Optimized for Multi-Room Rental: The property is explicitly configured for 'accommodating 5 single room rentals,' maximizing its income potential from the existing footprint.
Versatile Investment Opportunity: Ideal for both an 'income producing investment' and potentially an owner-occupied 'low maintenance home centrally located,' broadening its appeal to diverse buyers.
Cons
Landlord-Covered Utilities: Utilities are included in the rent at approximately $500 per month, which reduces the net operating income and exposes the landlord to fluctuating utility costs.
Small Lot Size: The property sits on a very small lot of 2070 sqft, limiting outdoor space, privacy, and potential for future expansion or significant landscaping.
Discrepancy in Property Data: There's a significant discrepancy between the MLS 'year_built:1923' and the description 'built in 2010,' which requires clarification. Additionally, the 3-bedroom MLS count versus '5 single room rentals' suggests potential non-conforming conversions or layout ambiguities that need verification.
