Condition Rating
Poor
The property was built in 1983, making it 41 years old. There is no mention of any significant renovations, and crucially, no interior images of the kitchen or bathrooms are provided. This strongly suggests these key areas are original or very dated, requiring substantial rehabilitation to meet current quality and aesthetic standards. While the exterior appears maintained, the likely condition of the interior, particularly the kitchen and bathrooms, would necessitate major updates, aligning with the 'poor' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Strong Income Potential: As a duplex with two identical units and separate utilities, it offers immediate and stable rental income, appealing to investors or owner-occupants looking to offset mortgage costs.
Future Development Opportunity: The R3-5 zoning allows for the addition of an Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), providing significant value-add potential and increased future income streams.
Highly Desirable Location: Situated near downtown Ventura, the beach, Ojai/Ventura Bike Trail, fairgrounds, coffee shops, restaurants, and retail, enhancing tenant appeal and property value.
Individual Unit Amenities: Each unit features its own 2-car garage and private gated front and back yards, offering convenience, security, and desirable features for tenants.
Separate Utilities: Separate utilities for each unit simplify property management and ensure fair billing for tenants, a key advantage for a multi-unit property.
Cons
Shared Laundry Facility: The shared laundry room adjacent to the garage could be a point of inconvenience or conflict for tenants, potentially impacting tenant satisfaction.
Potential for Dated Interiors: Built in 1983, the property description does not mention any recent updates, suggesting interiors might be original and could require modernization to command top-tier rents.
Age of Property Systems: While well-maintained, a 1983 build means major systems (e.g., plumbing, electrical, roofing) could be original or nearing the end of their expected lifespan, potentially leading to future repair or replacement costs.
