Excellent opportunity to acquire a fully occupied 8-unit multi-family investment property in the heart of Elgin! This income-producing building offers a compelling combination of current occupancy, recent capital improvements, and future value-add potential. Six of the eight units have been updated since September 2023, while Units #2 and #4 remain available for future improvements and potential rent enhancement. Major recent upgrades include a tear-off roof completed in 2024 and a water heater installed in 2022. The building is heated by a boiler, and each unit has its own window A/C unit. All 8 units are currently rented, allowing an investor to step into an established property with rental income already in place. Ideally located near restaurants, convenience stores, business offices, and established single-family neighborhoods, the property offers strong accessibility and a desirable central Elgin location. Whether you are looking to expand an existing portfolio or acquire a multi-unit property with additional upside, this 8-unit building presents an rare investment opportunity. Property is being sold AS-IS.
Sunset Park, located between Downtown Elgin and the Fox River, is a residential and park-centered Elgin neighborhood with tree-lined blocks and a classic neighborhood green. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Sunset Park grounds along Park Street, where ballfields, playground energy, and shaded paths set the daily rhythm. Housing reads as early-to-mid 20th-century, with compact lots, front porches, and mature canopy trees. The Fox River Trail frames the edge with a steady flow of walkers and cyclists. Lords Park Zoo and the Hemmens Cultural Center add local tradition and a calendar of events. Downtown’s independent cafes and galleries sit nearby for a change of pace.
