Condition Rating
Tear down
Built in 1920, this property shows no evidence of major renovations in the past 50 years. The images reveal a severely dated interior with old carpets and basic fixtures, and an exterior that appears unkempt and cluttered, suggesting significant deferred maintenance. The property analysis explicitly mentions 'potential demolition' and the need for 'significant renovation, modernization, or redevelopment,' indicating that the value lies primarily in the land and its commercial zoning, rather than the existing structure. The kitchen and bathroom areas, though not clearly visible in detail, are highly likely to be original or very old, consistent with the overall condition.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Flexible Commercial Zoning: The property's commercial zoning allows for diverse use cases, appealing to both residential and commercial investors and developers.
Strategic Location: Situated directly across from Whittier Narrows Park, Legg Lake, and South El Monte High School, with excellent access to the 60 and 605 Freeways, enhancing convenience and desirability.
Adjacent Development Potential: The availability of the neighboring property from the same trust presents a unique opportunity for combined acquisition and larger-scale development.
Generous Lot Size: A spacious 5,945 Sqft lot offers ample room for potential expansion, landscaping, or redevelopment projects.
Scenic Hills View: The property benefits from a desirable hills view, contributing to its aesthetic appeal and potential market value.
Cons
Advanced Age of Structure: Built in 1920, the property likely requires significant renovation, modernization, or potential demolition, which could entail substantial additional costs.
Listing Price Discrepancy: The current listing price is 4% higher than the estimated market value, suggesting it may be priced aggressively compared to current market assessments.
Implied Renovation/Development Costs: As an investment opportunity with commercial zoning and an older structure, significant capital investment will likely be required for renovation, redevelopment, or conversion to maximize its potential.
