About this home

Looking to grow your portfolio, start a portfolio or do you have a student planning to attend NIU? This well-maintained two-unit is ready for a new owner. Son is transferring to a new University. 4-5 bedrooms total in this two-unit. One can live in the spacious main level unit and rent out the 2nd level unit. Or one could rent out the rooms if they desire. (The City of DeKalb requires a rooming house license for this). This is a wonderful opportunity to own this multi-unit with original hardwood floors, spacious rooms, generous closet space, a two-car garage with extra parking, a basement for extra storage, original woodwork, separate entrance for the second unit. Upgraded electrical box, great yard, and walking distance to NIU and downtown DeKalb.Close to Interstate access and Route 23 shopping district access. Home is being sold AS-IS at the current price. More photos to come as tenants move out. The sellers plan to clean the home out and paint and install a new HVAC system by the end of April, so the price will increase at that time. If you are looking to invest, now is a great time to do so.
