Trolley Park Home for Rent

Named for its central pocket of green space, Trolley Park sits in a prime location on the west end of Council Bluffs. West Broadway, the city’s main thoroughfare, spans the breadth of the neighborhood, rolling all the way to Interstate 29 near the Nebraska border. The residential streets are highly walkable, giving homeowners and renters easy access to the commercial activity on West Broadway. Plus, housing prices are low compared to the rest of the Omaha metro area. “I like that area for first-time homebuyers and investors,” says Ryan Beck, a Realtor with BHHS Ambassador Real Estate who has been selling homes in the area for five years. “First-time homebuyers looking to the future — five years from now, when they want to upgrade to a bigger house, maybe they’ll keep it as a rental.” Trolley Park is a sizable neighborhood, but shaded paved sidewalks make it easy to get around on foot. Cottages, ranch-style homes and bungalows sit side by side on compact lots bordered by paved driveways. Most builds date to the early 20th century, and some have been recently remodeled. Housing inventory is low, and homes sell quickly when they enter the market. Buyers can expect to spend $100,000
