Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This two-unit duplex features two separate units, each with four large bedrooms, a large kitchen, a large living room, and a large stairway. The seller reports the boiler was replaced in August. A home warranty is also being provided by the seller. Square footage is estimated, and specific measurements should be confirmed during due diligence.

The property is located at 226 2nd Avenue in Big Rapids, Michigan (Mecosta County). The site is listed at 0.25 acres. Additional details such as interior condition beyond the noted boiler replacement should be verified directly with the seller or through the inspection process.

The configuration is well suited to tenants and owner-occupants looking for substantial, multi-bedroom space, with the option to live in one unit while renting the other. It can also serve multi-generational buyer groups who want to purchase together and benefit from having separate, like-configured living spaces on one property. Because the layout includes shared property ownership while maintaining two distinct units, it may appeal to buyers comparing single- and multi-unit housing strategies.

Key Highlights

  • Two‑unit home with 8 total bedrooms (each unit has four bedrooms)
  • Each unit includes a large kitchen, living room, and large stairway
  • Boiler replaced in August; home warranty provided by seller
