    $449,000 · 4 units
    Cash flows
    Cash flow $280/mo Cap 7.1% Break-even price $502K Yr 30 vs stocks 2.98× Positive in yr 1

    Well-updated fourplex with real capital work done, and it cash flows at the ask on estimated rents, but it only works if the rents are proven.

    No rents, leases or occupancy given for a 'turnkey' fourplex

  2. 1004 E 22nd St

    $247,000 · 2 units
    Cash flows
    Cash flow $151/mo Cap 7.1% Break-even price $275K Yr 30 vs stocks 2.99× Positive in yr 1

    Thin listing, but positive cash flow at the ask on estimated rents and a price above county value: worth pursuing if real rents are confirmed, and a lower price adds cushion.

    Ask is well above county value and near break-even, with negative cash flow at asking

  3. 2106 Elliot Ave

    $514,500 · 4 units
    Close
    Cash flow −$108/mo Cap 6.1% Break-even price $494K Yr 30 vs stocks 2.24× Positive in yr 3

    Nicely refreshed brick 4-plex, but a 72% jump in 8 months and negative cash flow at the ask means you should negotiate hard or walk.

    Rents are projected, not actual. No tenants or leases are described, and the units are 'ready for occupants'.

  4. 2211 10th Ave S

    $369,700 · 2 units
    Close
    Cash flow −$340/mo Cap 5.3% Break-even price $306K Yr 30 vs stocks 1.55× Positive in yr 9

    Nice-looking, well-equipped duplex, but at $369,700 it loses money as a rental; it works only for an owner-occupant or at a lower price.

    Price is far above break-even; negative cash flow at ask

  5. 2221 Bloomington Ave

    $399,999 · 2 units
    Overpriced
    Cash flow −$453/mo Cap 5.0% Break-even price $315K Yr 30 vs stocks 1.35× Positive in yr 11

    Handsome old duplex, but asking is about $85K above break-even and the rents, rental license and upper unit are all unknown, so negotiate hard or pass.

  6. 1912 Columbus Ave

    $278,000 · 2 units
    Cash flows
    Cash flow $328/mo Cap 7.8% Break-even price $340K Yr 30 vs stocks 3.46× Positive in yr 1

    A modest duplex with some recent updates, but the thin cash flow, the 1-unit license and the unknown rents make it a negotiate-hard-or-pass deal.

    Needs more info: The city's rental license covers 1 unit(s); this analysis counts 2.

  7. 2121 13th Ave S

    $634,000 · 5 units
    Cash flows
    Cash flow $1,298/mo Cap 8.8% Break-even price $878K Yr 30 vs stocks 4.30× Positive in yr 1

    Recent exterior work and a low 4d tax bill make the numbers look good, but confirm the rents, the 4d terms and the 4-vs-5 unit question before trusting them.

    Needs more info: The city's rental license covers 4 unit(s); this analysis counts 5.
