About 526 E Locust St

You don't find many at this price and condition fully occupied in Riverwest - come quick. 3/2 duplex with ability to rent as a 3/3 depending on use of the office space in the upper unit. Lots to like here... Tile baths & kitchens with full cabinetry, parking pad for 3 cars, siding + roofing + gutters + trim done around 10 years ago, replacement windows in upper unit, newer quartz counters + cabs/sink + appliances in lower, separate utilities & mechanicals with one newer furnace and one newer water heater -- and rented for $2165/mo gross at closing. Rents can go up some with no work and there is parking revenue to be realized, as well. Round it out with a great location with high rental demand and you have yourself a winner.
