Property Description
Calling all investors! Well-maintained 4-unit property in the heart of Allentown with long-term tenants already in place and below-market rents offering strong upside potential. 1227 W Chew Street and 312 N Jefferson Street present a unique opportunity-two separately addressed buildings on one parcel. The front building features two units: a 2-bedroom on the first floor and a spacious 3-bedroom (potential 4-bedroom) spanning the second and third floors. The rear building includes two 1-bedroom units. Tenants currently pay all utilities, keeping operating expenses low. Ideal for a buy-and-hold investor looking to increase rents over time or an owner-occupant seeking to live in one unit while generating income from the others. Property will be delivered with a Clear Certificate of Occupancy from the City of Allentown.
