Built in 1950, the property offers investors a well-maintained asset with stable in-place income, operational efficiencies, and continued rental upside. The property has benefited from significant capital improvements, including interior and exterior renovations, new windows, upgraded common areas, and a professionally maintained communal courtyard that enhances tenant appeal and livability. Additional amenities include on-site laundry facilities and six parking spaces consisting of two single surface spaces and two tandem parking areas. The property is also separately metered for gas and electric, helping reduce operating expenses and improve management efficiency.

Its grade compares it with other multifamily listings only: a building valued on income isn't ranked against houses and condos.
Five or more units take a commercial loan, whose terms differ from a home loan's; the cashflow below uses the site's default 20% down, 30-year terms. FHA's owner-occupied 3.5% down covers 2–4 units only.
