This multi-structure asset spans a total of 5,321 square feet, offering an exceptional blend of immediate cash flow, stable long-term tenancies, and monumental value-add potential. The property features two massive, identically configured residential layouts on the second and third floors, currently occupied on a month-to-month basis with no active leases—providing a rare, immediate operational runway to reposition the units to market rents of $3,000 per month each. The expansive first-floor commercial space at 167 Forbell Street features a prominent 22’ x 54’ layout with a high-traffic footprint, presenting a prime vacancy ready to be stabilized at a projected $6,500 per month. The accompanying 101st Avenue street-front commercial units offer excellent diversification.

Diverse Revenue Streams: The combination of residential apartments and multiple retail/office commercial spaces insulates the investor from vacancy risks and taps into two strong tenant demand pools.
