Property Description

Essex Realty Group, LLC is pleased to present 8138 S. Calumet Avenue, a six-unit multifamily investment opportunity located on a quiet residential block in Chicago's Chatham neighborhood. Offered for the first time in decades by a long-term owner, the property consists of six spacious two-bedroom apartments with below-market rents, providing investors with immediate value-add potential through future rent growth. The building has been exceptionally well cared for over the years and has benefited from numerous capital improvements, including upgraded electrical service, recent tuckpointing, and a new boiler, significantly reducing near-term capital expenditure requirements. Beyond the in-place rental upside, investors have multiple opportunities to further enhance value, including the potential to convert two of the oversized units into three-bedroom layouts, add a garden apartment (subject to zoning and city approval), and install on-site laundry facilities to generate additional ancillary income. Combining stable tenancy, below-market rents, strong physical ownership, and multiple value-add opportunities, 8138 S. Calumet Avenue presents a rare opportunity to acquire a well-maintained asset with meaningful upside in one of Chicago's established South Side neighborhoods.
