Condition Rating
Excellent
This property was a new build from the ground up in 2020, making it only 4 years old. It perfectly fits the 'Excellent' criteria for being built within 10 years. The description highlights modern amenities such as dual-pane vinyl windows, granite countertops, wood cabinets, tile flooring in kitchens and bathrooms, carpeted bedrooms, and forced heat throughout. The exterior image confirms a well-maintained, virtually new appearance with artificial turf for low maintenance. All components are new or virtually new, meeting current quality standards with no deferred maintenance.
Pros & Cons
Pros
New Construction: Built from the ground up in 2020, this property offers modern building standards, reduced immediate maintenance, and contemporary design.
High-Yield Duplex Configuration: As a residential income duplex, it features two massive 5-bedroom, 3-bathroom units, ideal for maximizing rental income and attracting larger tenant pools.
Generous Living Space: Boasting 3,790 sq/ft of living space, the property provides ample room for tenants, enhancing its appeal and potential rental value.
Modern Amenities & Finishes: Both units include desirable features such as dual pane vinyl windows, granite countertops, wood cabinets, and tile flooring, appealing to quality tenants.
Low Maintenance & Convenience: The property features artificial lawn for minimal upkeep and each unit benefits from its own single-car garage, adding significant tenant convenience.
Cons
Lack of Cooling System: The description only mentions 'forced heat throughout' and does not specify any air conditioning, which is a significant drawback for comfort in Los Angeles' climate.
Occupied Property & Restricted Access: The 'do not disturb occupants' clause limits viewing flexibility and thorough buyer inspection, potentially deterring some investors.
No Mention of In-Unit Laundry: For a new build with large 5-bedroom units, the absence of explicit mention of in-unit laundry facilities could be a notable missing amenity for prospective tenants.
