Great opportunity to own a Rockford duplex with income already in place! The lower unit is currently rented, providing instant cash flow. The upper unit needs a rehab-perfect for investors looking to add value or homeowner to create their dream. Long-term tenant recently passed, offering a clean slate for updates. Separate entrances, off-street parking, and solid bones make this a worthwhile project with upside potential.
