Owner is an agent, but is not the listing agent. Duplex investment opportunity in the heart of Saint Paul, this property features both units currently occupied by renters, offering immediate rental income potential. Numerous recent repairs and updates have already been completed, including chimney repairs, retaining wall improvements, a new water heater, plus new carpet and fresh paint in the upper unit. The roof was also replaced only two years ago. Conveniently situated close to public transportation, restaurants, shopping, and other local amenities, this property is a great addition to any investment portfolio.
