Colliers International appraised the property at $4.0M as-is (December 2025) and $7.5M upon conversion (January 2027). The conservative Phase 1 case shows value creation through conventional improvements alone.
A 0.75-acre compound in central Palm Springs featuring a pool courtyard, mature palm trees, commercial kitchen infrastructure, and 17 units configured as rental apartments.
The Conservative Case (Phase 1): Even without full Guesthouse conversion, the property reaches $4.4M through conventional improvements. Phase 2 requires belief in Guesthouse—Phase 1 does not.
