Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This is a sprawling two-unit residential income property with two separate units. The lower unit is currently tenant occupied on an active lease term, while the upper unit is vacant. Each unit includes a spacious living room, a formal dining room, a large kitchen, three bedrooms, and one bathroom. Both units share an unfinished basement.
The property is described as located just south of Puritan Ave and west of Wyoming Ave in Detroit. Walkability and bikeability are both noted as somewhat walkable/bikeable, with a transit score listed as some transit.
For investors or owner-operators, the mix of a lease-in-place lower unit and a vacant upper unit can support straightforward leasing and rent management within a single building. The sale is offered as-is, with all showings requiring a licensed agent to be present and dimensions noted as estimated and to be verified by the buyer.
