Four units have been upgraded with brand new flooring throughout, LED lighting, brand new kitchen with quartz countertops + new kitchen cabinets + stainless steel appliances, updated bathroom, and much more. The remaining non-upgraded 7 units provide ±24% rental upside, which upon turnover will take the current CAP Rate to a whopping 8.7% proforma CAP Rate (buyer to verify).
The property has new exterior paint and new common area paint as well. It has a total of 12 parking spaces in the back (10 open + 2 garages). No parking soft story is required.
