Please note the price is only for 1609. New owner of 1607 S. Sawyer has option to purchase adjusted double lot on 16th street at FMV (confirmed with City of Chicago) for additional opportunities. Both buildings are fully tenants occupied with rents currently below market value but can be adjusted after light cosmetic rehab at buyer's discretion. Each unit contains their own dedicated HVAC, water heather and electrical panels condo style. Buildings are priced on recent sold/contingent comps in the area. Buyer would need to purchase property subject to existing tenants.
