Property is extensive renovation needed.
The property, built in 1954, is explicitly described as needing 'TLC' and presenting an 'opportunity to renovate.' Images confirm very dated kitchens with old cabinets, laminate countertops, and basic appliances. Bathrooms feature old tiling, basic vanities, and fixtures that are clearly from an older era. Flooring is predominantly dated ceramic tile, and heating/cooling appears to be via wall units and window ACs, indicating outdated systems. The overall condition suggests substantial rehabilitation is required to modernize the units and maximize rental income, aligning with the 'Poor' condition criteria.
This triplex offers three distinct units (two 1-bed/1-bath, one 2-bed/1-bath), providing multiple income streams and strong investment potential.
Positioned as an excellent opportunity for both first-time homeowners looking to offset mortgage costs and seasoned investors seeking rental income.
Each unit benefits from its own carport and private storage area, adding significant value and convenience for tenants.
The property 'could use a little TLC' and presents an 'opportunity to renovate,' indicating it is not turn-key and may require significant capital investment for upgrades.
