Description

Lorain sits on Lake Erie just 30 miles west of Cleveland, a commuter-accessible market where renters make up 45% of all households, county home values are up nearly 18% year-over-year, and a wave of economic activity including 1, 800 new union jobs at Ford's Ohio Assembly Plant is tightening rental demand across the board. Against that backdrop, this fully occupied 10-unit building is a textbook buy-and-hold: all one-bedroom/one-bath units, many updates already complete, low property taxes, and a new silicone roof layer going on prior to closing. At $42, 500 per door, the basis is hard to argue with. The rent roll sits at $6, 225/month ($74, 700 GSI) with current rents ranging $500-$675, meaningfully below a market where the dominant rental price band runs $700-$850. That gap represents $100-$200/unit of achievable upside on renewals with minimal to no upgrades. A coin-operated laundry room and unused storage area add additional income potential on top. The owner covers water, sewer, and gas via the on-site boiler, all reflected in the expense model. At $420K, the deal underwrites to an 8.7% cap rate, 1.40x DSCR, and $871/month net cash flow against a conservative 5% vacancy assumption. As rents roll to market, the 5-year model shows cash-on-cash climbing from 9.46% toward 14.5% with cumulative cash flow exceeding $66, 000 over that window. Fully occupied, freshly roofed, clear value-add runway. This is Lorain at its most investable.
