Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This six-family property is located in a C2 zoning district. The building features a total of 13 bedrooms across six units. The layout consists of five 2-bed apartments and one 3-bed apartment. The units have been mostly remodeled. Tenants are responsible for all utilities. The property is situated on Charles Street, directly behind Hopkins Junior High School near the intersection of Charles St and Branch Ave. The exterior features low-maintenance vinyl siding and replacement windows. There is currently no on-site laundry, but the addition of coin-operated or card-operated machines offers an opportunity to increase revenue. The property offers stable cash flow with long-term tenants in place and is ideal for investors seeking immediate income and long-term appreciation. The property is available as a stand-alone purchase or as part of a package including the adjacent 4,000 SF vacant lot at 532 Charles St, also zoned C2. The vacant lot comes with plans for a 9-unit multifamily residential building with on-site parking.

Key Highlights

  • Strong, stable cash flow with long‑term tenants and a 7%+ cap rate.
  • Desirable C2 zoning, supporting consistent rental demand.
  • Low operating expenses due to tenants paying all utilities.
