This fully occupied, professionally managed 3-property single-family portfolio in Lorain and Elyria is cash-flowing at an 8.78% cap rate, with a 12.37% cash-on-cash return and a 1.5 DSCR at 75% LTV. It generates $4,070/month ($48,480 annually) with a current NOI of $32,927. Tenants pay all utilities, and there are no Section 8 tenants. ARV is estimated near $500,000 based on single-family comps, offering over $150,000 in potential equity through resale. Recent updates include new hot water tanks and furnaces at 509 Lake and 1872 E 30th, a new roof and sewer line repairs at 509 Lake, full interior renovation at 1415 W 20th, and additional upgrades at 1872 E 30th. All major capital work has been completed and future maintenance is projected around 5%. Properties include 1872 E 30th St in Lorain (5 bed, 2 bath, leased through Dec 2026), 509 Lake Ave in Elyria (4 bed, 2 bath, month-to-month), and 1415 W 20th in Lorain (3 bed, 1.5 bath, leased through Feb 2027). Professionally managed at a 13% fee with repair expenses inflated by prior capital improvements—new management can reduce operating costs to 5–8%. Located near University Hospitals Elyria, Lorain County Community College, and Lake Erie, with over $67M in local infrastructure investment supporting long-term growth. Full due diligence package available. No showings until accepted offer. Seller prefers to sell as a package but may consider splitting. Additional portfolios also available.
