Well-Maintained Duplex - Ideal Investment or First-Time Homebuyer Opportunity! This well-maintained duplex features two 1 bedroom, 1 bathroom units, each with separate private entrances, offering both comfort and privacy. Whether you're looking for a solid investment opportunity or a first-time homebuyer wanting to live in one unit while generating rental income from the other, this property offers excellent flexibility. Both units provide functional layouts and have been cared for, making this a move-in ready option with strong income potential!

What to check on this one

  • Confirm actual flood zone with FEMA map; request elevation certificate if in AE/VE.
  • Obtain roof inspection report; 70-year-old roof likely needs replacement soon.
  • Verify plumbing material (polybutylene/cast-iron common in 1956); ask service history.
  • Review both units' rental history, lease terms, tenant status, and eviction records.
  • Confirm HVAC age and condition for each unit; get maintenance records.
  • Request 4-point inspection quote; verify insurer appetite for 70-year-old duplex.

Flagged from the listing itself — not an inspection, and no substitute for one. Bring these to the showing.
