About This Home

As of November 2016

Convenient location DUPLEX!!! Front house 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, plus office (converted from a balcony) with city light view, storage room below, and front yard. Back house 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom (upgraded 09/2016) with large back yard. Tenants pay all utilities including water & trash. Both have newer roofs. Property needs TLC and clean up, but great for investors or owner to live in one and rent out one for income. More square footage than it shows on record, buyer to verify any permits/or additions without permits. Currently both houses are renting to month-to-month tenants. Sold in "AS-IS" condition. Buyer to accept current tenants or give them move out notice. Sellers already reduced $50,000 for quick sale. DO NOT go on the property without appointment.
