500 N 17th St – PilotHouse | Modern Mixed-Use Asset with Significant Upside PilotHouse is a 2021-built, mixed-use development offering 20 residential units and +/- 6,715 SF of ground-floor shell space ideal for retail, office, or residential buildout. Currently 80% occupied with below-market rents, the property presents a compelling value-add opportunity for strategic investors, mission-aligned organizations, or community-focused groups seeking to drive neighborhood revitalization while capturing substantial upside. Located in a Qualified Opportunity Zone along a high-growth redevelopment corridor, PilotHouse combines modern construction with long-term investment fundamentals and social impact potential. Unit Mix • 1 × 2 Bed / 2 Bath • 4 × 2 Bed / 1 Bath • 11 × 1 Bed / 1 Bath • 2 × 1 Bed / 1 Bath w/ Balcony • 2 × Studio At a Glance • Year Built: 2021 • Residential Units: 20 (80% occupied) • Commercial Shell: +/- 6,715 SF (C-2 zoning, divisible into 1–3 suites) • Current Residential Rent: $11,955/month • Market Rent Potential: $18,800/month - +36.4% Upside • Vacancy: 4 residential units + entire ground-floor commercial shell • Parking: 12-space private lot + ample street parking Financial Overview: Key Drivers of Underperformance 1. Revenue Losses • Below-Market Rents: In-place rents are 36% below market due to mismanagement and poor lease oversight ? Estimated Loss: $81,600/year • Residential Vacancy: 4 of 20 units are vacant in a market that should support 95%+ occupancy • Estimated Loss: $45,000–$54,000/year • Vacant Commercial Shell: Entire 6,715 SF ground-floor space is un-leased and unimproved • Estimated Loss: $67,000–$100,000/year • Total Lost Revenue Potential: $193,600–$235,600/year 2. Operational Inefficiencies • Inconsistent rent collections and high expense ratios due to ineffective or absentee management • Delays in unit turnover and maintenance reduce NOI • Lack of local oversight leads to missed enforcement and income optimization opportunities 3. Unused Commercial Component • Shell space incurs holding costs (taxes, insurance, maintenance) with no offsetting income • No existing tenant improvements or activation plan in place Conclusion PilotHouse is underperforming due to a lack of professional management and strategic leasing—not because of location, asset quality, or market fundamentals. The building is structurally sound, modern, and located in a high-potential area. With proper execution, this property is primed for significant upside.
