About This Home

229 Main Street

Turnkey investment opportunity in a high-demand student rental market! This spacious 6-bedroom single-family home is ideally suited for student housing, offering strong income potential and consistent rental demand year after year. The property features generously sized bedrooms, a large shared living area, multiple bathrooms, and a functional layout that maximizes rental occupancy. Proximity to local colleges, dining, and amenities, this location is highly attractive to student tenants. Investor confidence built in: Leases are already secured for the 2026-2027 academic year, providing immediate, reliable income from day one. Rare opportunity alert: The neighboring property is also available for purchase, presenting a unique chance to acquire a side-by-side investment package. Expand your portfolio, increase cash flow, and create operational efficiencies by owning multiple student rentals in one location--an opportunity that doesn't come around often. Even more upside: A third property is also available just a few doors down, offering the potential to control multiple assets within the same immediate area. This is an exceptional opportunity to create a concentrated student housing portfolio, streamline management, and maximize returns through scale. Whether you're a seasoned investor or looking to break into the student housing market, this is your chance to secure one, two, or all three of these income-producing assets. Opportunities like this are rare--don't miss your chance to build serious momentum in a proven rental market!
