Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This property is a six-unit multifamily apartment building that is currently fully vacant and has been cleared. It was previously configured as six 1-bedroom units, and the asset is positioned for renovations and re-lease following updates.

The building is located at 1430 8th Street in Des Moines, Iowa (50314), within Polk County. The listing notes the property’s proximity to downtown Des Moines and convenient access to shopping, dining, and major employers in the area.

From an operator or investor standpoint, the current vacant status reduces near-term occupancy constraints while you plan unit improvements and a leasing strategy. The listing also states that separate utilities are already in place, which can simplify expense management and tenant billing once the units are brought back online. Zoning is R1-60, providing a defined residential framework for redevelopment planning under current local requirements. The property’s small footprint and straightforward 1-bedroom unit configuration may appeal to buyers seeking a renovation-and-lease-up project within a managed portfolio context.
