🏠Property Fit

older build (1964) — major systems may need attention.

🏠 Pre-1980 build — I'd lead the inspection with roof, HVAC, plumbing, and electrical. That's where five-figure surprises hide.

Agent's Comments

What stands out about this home

Luxury homes (4-bed / 3-bath, 2,012 sq ft) don't comp cleanly. The $1.4M–$1.6M range is a starting point; the actual market price comes down to features a buyer connects with in person. 8 nearby closed sales support the numbers — that's a confident baseline. The spread inside this range is a condition call — a home that needs work sits near the bottom, a maintained one holds the top. At this age (62 years), the inspection is where the price actually gets set — updated systems hold the range, original ones pull it down.

These highlights are generated from public data, comparable sales, and environmental records — not a formal appraisal. A walk-through and local agent analysis are always recommended.
