Property Description
1500 S. Lawndale is a recently remodeled and upgraded 9-unit building! Currently configured with 8 nicely sized 2BR/1BA apartments, and a retail storefront (now legalized as ADUs). PLEASE NOTE: The storefront IS framed-out and requires completion. All units are separately metered and the property boasts a new (2 yr) roof, plumbing, electrical, individual GFAs and original stained hardwood flooring. This building is being sold 'as-is'. There's a LOT of rental upside and equity creation potential for the right value-add investor!
