Hi all,
Here’s a wonderful property I have in Trenton. Just needs minor cosmetic work.
Address is: 640 Edgewood Ave, Trenton, NJ 08618
This is a 1,260 sqft duplex with 3 bedrooms / 1 bath + finished attic + basement. With the attic, it’s technically 4 bedrooms.
Comps price the property at around $65K. (Zillow estimate is $81K) My price is $41K
It doesn’t need much renovation. The interior walls need to be painted. You could refinish or update the kitchen cabinets depending on whether you resell or rent to a tenant. It may also need a refrigerator and/or some updates in the bathroom.
The toilet is new. The entire house has wood floors that are in great condition. Windows look good. Heating, water heater, etc are fine. The house was really well-maintained.
It’s on a nice block. All other properties are well maintained with well-kept lawns. Schools and other amenities nearby. Could get $1,100 - $1200 in rent easily.
Let me know what you think. Would like to close in the next week or so.
