Highly Attractive Seller Financing 3.85%, 20% Down, 5 Years. UW 17th Rooming Houses offers investors a rare opportunity to acquire two adjacent rooming houses in Seattle’s highly desirable U-District/Greek Row location, just a 4-minute walk to the University of Washington campus, 9-minute walk to the U-District Light Rail Station, and 20-minute walk to University Village. The property features a combined 45 bedrooms, 5 kitchens, 11 bathrooms, 11,560 rentable SF, 8,640 SF of land, and 6 parking stalls. With average in-place rents of approximately $719/bed compared to projected market rents of $850/bed, the asset provides clear upside through light interior updates, operational improvements, and potential reconfiguration strategies. New roofs were completed in 2023, with mostly updated plumbing and electrical systems, offering investors a strong foundation in one of Seattle’s most consistent student-housing rental markets.
