Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This duplex includes two separate 2-bedroom, 1-bath units. The downstairs unit (345 Dakota Avenue) is 586 square feet and was recently vacant, with the last rent reported at $750. The upstairs unit (345.5 Dakota Avenue) is also 586 square feet and is currently rented at $800; the tenant moved in on 3/24 and the listing indicates the tenancy is month-to-month.

Both units are part of the same building configuration, offering two independent living spaces under one ownership. The property is described as having tax abatement in place through 2034, which may be a relevant consideration for buyers evaluating total ownership costs.

From a tenant or operator fit perspective, the property provides a straightforward income-residential setup with the ability to occupy one unit while leasing the other. With the downstairs unit recently vacated and the upstairs unit currently occupied, the duplex presents an owner with immediate flexibility around occupancy timing, while the current rent and lease status for the upstairs unit provide a clear, documented starting point for underwriting.

  • Each unit offers 586 sqft (345 Dakota downstairs and 345.5 Dakota upstairs)
