Investment Insights
Based on property information with market context.
This very nice top-and-bottom duplex features two separate two-bedroom units. Each unit is laid out as a full residence, providing a straightforward income configuration for an owner-operator or investor. The property totals 1,732 square feet on a 0.5-acre lot, and it is currently producing rent under active leases.
The units are located in the Smithsburg school district. Current rent is stated at $1,200 for the first floor and $1,250 for the second floor, with lease end dates of May 2027 for the first-floor tenant and January 2027 for the second-floor tenant. The listing notes a solid 10% gross return on investment, and all showings require 24-hour notice.
For buyers looking to add a manageable multifamily asset, this duplex offers two distinct living spaces within a single property and maintains income through the remainder of the lease terms. Because showings require advance scheduling, it may be especially well-suited for investors and owner-occupants who can coordinate visit windows and plan around the existing tenancy.
