Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This offering includes a double lot with an existing one-bedroom, one-bath home featuring a single tuck-under garage. The home is being sold “as is,” and the property includes the adjacent lot to the north (718 Monona) in addition to the home at 720 Monona.

Both the home and the additional lot have access via an alley/road at the rear of the lots. The public remarks also note downtown view potential and ongoing development in the surrounding area.

Buyers may consider updating the existing home, adding onto it, or clearing the additional land to pursue new construction. The seller also presents the property as a hold opportunity for long-term investment, with the configuration suited to multiple approaches given the double-lot setup and rear access.
