This is a commercial condo — business space that appears in the condo feed, not a home. Its $/sqft naturally sits far below residential units, so comparing it to condo comps would manufacture a spectacular fake discount. We don't score it at all.

- Undervalued once condition & history are priced in
- On market 109 days → strong negotiating leverage
- Low HOA (0.9%/yr)
⚠️ Cons
- Older building (1917)
- Photos look dim — verify light in person
🚩 Red flags
- Commercial condo — business space, not a home; residential comps and the Deal Score do not apply
