Separately metered gas & electric. Coin-operated commercial washer & dryer in basement shared by both units provides extra income. Second floor tenants maintain lawn and bushes and are responsible for snow removal in exchange for $60/month reduction in rent which is reflected in adjusted Unit 2 current lease amount of $1,640/month. Both apartments are currently leased - start out with strong cash flow right away. Photos are from when both units were vacant prior to tenant occupancy.
