This solid brick colonial offers investors a clear path to strong returns. the property features a new roof and other updates. Once an estimated $30,000 in improvements, are completed, the property is positioned to qualify for top-tier Section 8 payment standards, delivering an estimated 14% annual return. The equity story is just as compelling. Recent sales in the immediate micro-market—including 2444 Woodstock, located directly behind the subject—support an after-repair value of $250,000.
