Condition Rating
Poor
Built in 1930, this property is nearly a century old. The listing description explicitly states, 'This property needs work,' which, for a home of this age, strongly indicates that it requires substantial repairs and rehabilitation beyond minor updates. While the exterior image shows a well-maintained yard and a structurally sound-looking facade, the lack of interior photos, especially of the kitchen and bathroom, combined with the seller's disclosure, suggests that major systems, finishes, and potentially structural elements are likely outdated or in need of significant repair to meet modern standards and comfort. It's unlikely to be move-in ready without considerable investment.
Pros & Cons
Pros
Prime Los Angeles Location: Situated in a highly sought-after metropolitan area, offering strong market demand and potential for appreciation.
Generous Lot Size: The 6,750 sqft lot provides ample outdoor space, potential for landscaping, or future expansion, a valuable asset in urban environments.
Potential for Value Add: Positioned as a 'short sale' requiring work, this property presents a significant opportunity for a buyer to invest in renovations and realize substantial equity growth.
Presence of a View: The property benefits from having a view, an attractive amenity that enhances desirability and potential market value.
Proximity to Quality Education: Located very close to La Salle Avenue Elementary School (0.14 miles) and within reasonable distance to the highly-rated Middle College High School (rating 9), appealing to families.
Cons
Extensive Renovation Needs: The property explicitly 'needs work,' indicating a substantial financial and time commitment for necessary repairs, updates, and modernization.
Short Sale Transaction Complexity: Being a short sale, the purchase process is contingent on lender approval, which can lead to prolonged timelines, increased uncertainty, and a higher risk of the transaction not closing.
Inadequate Bathroom Count: With only one bathroom for three bedrooms, the property lacks modern functional convenience, likely necessitating a costly renovation to add another bathroom for improved livability and resale appeal.
