Both buildings are fully tenants occupied with rents currently below market value but can be adjusted after light cosmetic rehab at buyer's discretion. Each unit contains their own dedicated HVAC, water heather and electrical panels condo style. Buildings are priced on recent sold/contingent comps in the area.
