About this home

Appraisal from June 2009 at $375,000. This is one of the best affordable cash flow/appreciation properties to come available in downtown Charleston in some time. In a PRIME location just 2 blocks from Citadel's Johnson Hagood Football Stadium and 2 blocks from Hampton Park, there is no denying the convenience and upside of this great property. With 4 apartments all featuring 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms, eat in kitchen, living room, and washer/dryer hookups, an investor can step right in with 2 tenants in place and a consistent rental of $725-$775/unit in current condition. The real opportunity though may be in improving these units as they become vacant and raising to higher rents. Perfect for the Citadel parent looking for a place on the weekends for the student or for the football games as you can literally see the stadium from the front of this house. All units seperately metered. 1-2 off-street parking spaces officially but plenty of room for parking. Also 1 block from City Bus Line and close to MUSC. Live in 1 unit and let the other tenants pay your mortgage!
