    Investor opportunity with strong upside potential. This 2-bedroom, 1-bath property is a solid value-add opportunity for investors looking to force appreciation.

With the right updates, this property could deliver strong cash flow and long-term returns. Buyer to pay all closing costs and may select their own title company. Property sold as-is.
