Investor Special – Legal Duplex with Strong Rental Potential |
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a two-unit multifamily property in Southwest Philadelphia with proven rental income and strong upside potential.
Property Overview:
Unit 1: 2 Bedrooms / 1 Bathroom
Unit 2: 2 Bedrooms / 1 Bathroom
Large floor plans in both units
Recently rented, demonstrating ongoing demand
Both units are separately metered for utilities
Value-Add Potential: While the property is functional as-is, it would benefit from cosmetic updates and light renovations, allowing investors to significantly increase rental income. Modernized kitchens, baths, and flooring could drive higher rents in a market where updated 2BR units are leasing at $1,200–$1,400/month.
Projected Rental Income (Post-Renovation):
2 Units × $1,300/month = $31,200/year gross income
Strong tenant demand in this location supports consistent occupancy
Location Highlights:
Steps from Woodland Avenue shopping district with groceries, restaurants, and retail
Excellent access to public transportation (trolleys, buses, regional rail nearby)
Quick commute to University City, Center City, and Philadelphia International Airport
Surrounded by an established rental community with ongoing redevelopment activity
Investor Advantage: This property is ideal for:
Buy-and-hold investors seeking steady cash flow with upside
Owner-occupants looking to live in one unit while renting the other
Value-add investors targeting increased NOI through renovations
With its strong rental history, prime location, and untapped upside, 1410 S 52nd Street offers an attractive investment opportunity in one of Philadelphia’s steadily growing rental corridors.
