Cons

Future Remodel Completion: The extensive remodel is stated to be completed in October 2025, indicating the property is not immediately move-in ready and requires a buyer to wait for completion.
High Monthly Association Fees: The monthly association fee of $1,370 is substantial and represents a significant ongoing cost of ownership, which may impact affordability for some buyers.
Furniture & Art Excluded: The listing explicitly states that furniture and art are available outside of escrow and separate from the listing price, meaning additional investment would be required to acquire the current staged aesthetic.
