Property is moderate renovation needed.
The property was built in 1942, making it over 80 years old. While the exterior appears maintained, the visible window AC units suggest outdated cooling systems. No interior images are provided, preventing a direct assessment of the kitchen, bathrooms, flooring, and other interior features. However, given the age and lack of explicit mention of recent extensive renovations, it's highly probable that the interior components are functional but show signs of being outdated and would require minor to moderate updates to meet current aesthetic and functional standards. The unverified permits for the garage conversion also indicate potential issues that would prevent a higher score.
The property boasts R2 zoning, allowing for expansion to 4+ units or demolition to build at least 6 units, offering substantial future value and investment upside.
Currently configured as a duplex with an additional converted garage unit, providing three distinct rental incomes and diversified cash flow.
Each unit benefits from separate utility meters and individual washer/dryer hookups, enhancing tenant appeal, operational efficiency, and management ease.
The converted garage unit's permit status is unverified, posing a potential legal and financial risk for the buyer who would need to verify compliance or undertake regularization.
Built in 1942, the property is older, which may imply a need for significant maintenance, system upgrades, or renovations in the near future to meet modern standards or tenant expectations.
The stated 4.5% cap rate is based on current rents without increases, indicating that immediate cash flow may not be fully maximized and requires active management to improve.
