Overview

This two-family home is configured as a first-floor and a second-floor unit. The first-floor unit includes a living room, an eat-in kitchen, two bedrooms, a full bath, and access to the full unfinished basement. The second-floor unit spans the second and third levels, offering a living room, an eat-in kitchen, four bedrooms, and one and a half bathrooms. Outside, the property includes a two-car driveway and a well-sized backyard. The home is being sold as-is, with all required inspections the buyer’s responsibility.

Located at 98 Lafayette St in Paterson, NJ, the property is described as very walkable (walkScore 75) with some transit access (transitScore 35) and bikeable conditions (bikeScore 50). The listing notes that the buyer is responsible for obtaining the CCO and smoke cert.

This layout may appeal to owner-occupants seeking additional income from a separate unit, as well as investors interested in a duplex-style setup. Buyers should plan for the property to be closed through cash offers or alternative financing only, as the home is noted as not passing traditional financing in its current state.
