About This Home
520 Johnston St, Perth Amboy, NJ 08861 Investment Opportunity Turnkey two-family in the heart of Perth Amboy a true set-it-and-forget-it income property. Two spacious 2-bedroom apartments, both occupied by long-term tenants currently on month-to-month leases, giving you immediate cash flow with the flexibility to restructure terms, or take possession of a unit. The standout feature for investors: tenants pay all utilities, including water. That means minimal operating expenses and a clean, predictable NOI a rarity in multi-family at this price point. Location works in your favor.

Steady rental demand, strong tenant retention, and a market that keeps appreciating. Whether you're adding to a portfolio, buying your first multi-family, or looking to house-hack one unit while the other pays the mortgage, this is a straightforward, low-maintenance investment worth a serious look.
