Property Description
Exceptional Turnkey 5-Unit Asset in Prime Pilsen with Strong 7.15% Cap Rate & Significant Immediate Upside. Originally reconfigured as an owner-occupied building. Highly lucrative, fully permitted 5-unit commercial residential building situated on a prominent corner lot in Pilsen. Extensively gut-rehabbed to the studs between 2013-2023 with all-new building systems, modern layouts, and premium finishes. Operating at a strong 7.15% current Cap Rate with a projected 1.42 Debt Coverage Ratio (DCR), this asset offers rare immediate bankability and day-one cash flow. UNMATCHED VALUE-ADD OPPORTUNITY: The 1st-floor 1,500 sq. ft. 1BR/1BA loft tenant is vacating, creating an immediate, frictionless opportunity to capture a massive market rent increase or split the oversized floor plan to maximize total yield. Both 1701 W 21st St and 2102 S Paulina St addresses included in sale on single PIN. PREMIUM MECHANICALS & INFRASTRUCTURE: Fully updated water service replaced with copper directly to the city main. Low expenses: Tenants responsible for utilities with separately metered gas and electric. Individual furnaces, central AC, and separate tank/tankless water heaters for every unit. Attached 2-car garage off the alley providing additional premium rental income. Full unfinished basement housing utilities with storage spaces for tenants. HIGH RENTER RETENTION: Well-appointed apartments feature stone/quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, premium hardwood or engineered flooring, masterfully tiled baths, and convenient in-unit washers and dryers. Superb location with immediate access to Pilsen public transit. Currently self-managed with zero historic vacancy. Clean rent roll, P&L, and T12 commercial underwriting documents available upon request.
