PROPERTY DESCRIPTION

A nice “solid” brick multi-unit that’s currently cash flowing. This 4 unit is in an ideal location. The units are within a 2 minute drive to the expressway to Chicago suburbs and 45 minutes from downtown Chicago. Shopping is within walking distance and the elementary, middle and high schools are minutes away. Three of the 4 units are currently rented. These units should be renting for at least $700 per month. Three of them are currently at: $550, $475 and $475. The tenants have been there for years and the landlord hasn’t raised the rent in years. The tenants pay all utilities, except for water and trash. The new tenant for the unoccupied unit will be paying $700 a month. There is also a potential for $750-$800 in rent per unit, within the next year, because the area has a high demand for rental units. However, we would suggest you begin with $700. We used $700 to calculate the cash on cash return percentage.

As always, we will manage the property for you, if you need that service.

ARV: $225,000-$250,000

Asking Price: $180,000

Cash on Cash Return: 13.18%!
