INVESTORS—STOP SCROLLING! Two-unit income property with both units rented, including a nearly 30-year tenant, plus newer roof/windows and brand-new exterior paint. Strong rental history + established tenants + FHA-friendly = a smart addition to any investment portfolio. This is the type of investment buyers look for—established rental history, minimal turnover, and a property you can start earning from immediately.
The upper-level unit has been occupied by the same tenant for nearly 30 YEARS, providing exceptional stability and a proven rental history. The lower-level unit is updated and well-maintained, featuring fresh paint, modern kitchen, in-unit laundry, upgraded bathroom, and new kitchen flooring, while retaining charming original character.
Brand-new exterior paint, newer roof and windows, and a 2-car garage add to the property's appeal and help minimize future maintenance concerns. Tenants pay gas and electric, manage lawn care and snow removal, and share the garage.
FHA buyer friendly! Whether you're an experienced investor expanding your portfolio or looking for your first income property, this duplex offers the opportunity to build equity while collecting rental income from day one.
And the location delivers: just blocks from light rail and bus lines, restaurants, entertainment, and Ryan Park.
Two units. Two established tenants. Strong rental history. Recent improvements. Excellent location. Don't overlook this opportunity to add a solid, income-producing property to your portfolio!
