Investment opportunity! Duplex for sale including 1057 Osprey and 1058 Townsley, each offering 2 bedrooms and 1 bath. Both units need updates and offer excellent value-add potential. Conveniently located near Southern University, making this a great opportunity for investors or possible student rental housing. Approximately 1,200 sq ft total. 1057 Osprey is currently boarded, and the seller will need to pay to have it unboarded—serious buyers only. Interior access to 1057 Osprey will be granted after an accepted offer, contingent upon inspection, along with submission of proof of funds or a bank pre-approval letter for a construction/renovation loan. Measurements are not warranted by owner or realtor. Please email documentation to joyrussellrealtor@gmail.com
