Pros & Cons
Pros
Strong Income Potential & Flexibility: As a duplex, the property offers versatile options for an owner to live in one unit and rent the other, or rent both for maximum income, explicitly stated as a 'Fantastic opportunity' and 'Great rental property'.
Extensive Interior Updates: Both units have undergone significant renovations, including updated kitchens with granite countertops and new appliances (dishwasher, gas stove), updated bathrooms, and recessed lighting, minimizing immediate renovation needs for a buyer.
Energy Efficient Upgrades: The inclusion of dual-pane windows throughout both units enhances energy efficiency, reduces noise, and improves overall comfort for tenants or owners.
Valuable Finished Basement: The finished basement with a bonus room and a full bathroom adds significant functional living space, which can be utilized for various purposes, increasing the property's appeal and potential rental value.
Desirable Location: Situated in 'desirable Idora Park' in Oakland, the property benefits from a sought-after neighborhood, likely contributing to stable rental demand and potential for long-term appreciation.
Cons
Age of Structure (1940): While interiors are updated, the property's 1940 construction date suggests potential for underlying issues with original infrastructure (e.g., plumbing, electrical, foundation) that may not be immediately apparent or covered by cosmetic renovations.
Limited Information on Major Systems: The description lacks details regarding the condition or recent upgrades of critical building systems such as the roof, HVAC (if present), or main electrical panel, which could represent future capital expenditures.
No Specific Outdoor Amenities Highlighted: Despite a 7130 sqft lot, the description does not mention specific outdoor features like a usable yard, patio, or dedicated parking, which could be a drawback for tenants or owners seeking outdoor living space.
