Higher is a better buy. 50 is "priced about right for what it is". The last step curves the raw advantage onto 0–100, so points stop being one-for-one at the extremes.
💵What this unit actually costs per month
26% of that payment is not the mortgage. The HOA fee alone is $29,220 over five years — money that buys you no equity. A calculator that defaulted the fee to zero would have quoted you $4,559.
Not FHA-approved. No 3.5%-down FHA financing on this unit, so the realistic floor is a 5%-down conventional loan ($36,250). Common for small associations and not a defect on its own, but it does remove FHA buyers from your resale pool.

Description
Push open the big, beautiful gates and the city falls away. What's waiting is a secret garden — the romantic, storybook entry that makes you feel like you've slipped into an English cottage, right in the heart of Temescal. This home was taken down to the studs and rebuilt. Behind the original double-hung windows and hardwood floors: all-new plumbing, new electrical, and a forced-air furnace. Vintage soul, none of the 3-a.m. surprises. At 901 square feet, your light-filled upstairs home lives large. New kitchen with stone counters and room to actually cook. Fresh bathroom.
