The area has seen a huge upswing in development and increased rents throughout the area as supply for high end units has not been able to keep up with demand. Conversely, if the new ownership desires to increase gross revenues, the opportunity to accept “guaranteed” rent payments provided by Federal and State Funding for assistance to low income individuals (Section 8) exists. The potential exists to operate this complex as a “market” (no subsidy) property or to accept Housing Vouchers (Section 8) or a combination of both. This is a Fantastic Opportunity to purchase a stabilized asset in a Class A/B Westside Neighborhood with huge upside for a bargain price!
