NSTANT CASH FLOW: Investors or Owner Occupant. This duplex delivers the first floor VACANT, freshly painted with brand new flooring. Move in and let the second floor tenant's $1,450/month go straight at your mortgage, or lease it at market rent and collect $34,200 a year from day one. Both units are 3BR/1BA in 2,100 square feet — most duplexes at this price are one and two bedroom units renting for a lot less. Separate entrances, full basement. Works for a DSCR investor or an FHA owner-occupant. First floor on lockbox, shows anytime.
