Property Description
Decent cash-flow opportunity from this 2BR Strawberry Mansion property. Investment opportunity for those looking to build equity. Currently tenant-occupied at $850/mo with a solid payment history. Tenants are settled and would prefer to stay but there is flexibility lease is currently month-to-month. Overall the property could would benefit from some sweat equity and cosmetic updates, the "bones" have seen recent attention, including a newer water heater, forced air heat, some window replacements and an updated electric panel. At this price point, the CAP rate is hard to ignore. Keep the steady cash flow as-is, or renovate over time to maximize market rents and forced appreciation. Ample notice required for all showings.
