About 197 W Buena Vista St
Incredible turnkey duplex opportunity in Highland Park. Great as a house-hack by living in one unit while renting the other, or a great addition to a real estate portfolio. Extensively renovated down from the studs, this fully updated multi-family duplex offers two spacious 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom units, totaling 2,332 square feet of living space. Each unit has been meticulously renovated from top to bottom with brand new windows, electrical, plumbing, HVAC, drywall, insulation, and both front and back porches — ensuring long-term durability, efficiency and minimal maintenance for years to come. Not to mention the new roof and siding. The kitchens and bathrooms in both units have been tastefully remodeled for optimal functionality. Currently tenant-occupied, this property generates $1,800/month in total rental income ($900/unit), offering immediate cash flow. Tenant's more than willing to re-locate to another property. Conveniently located near major freeways, public transit, and the growing energy of nearby Detroit neighborhoods, this is a rare opportunity to secure a high-quality, income-producing property in a rising market.
