Beds/Baths: 6 Bed / 3 Bath Total (Current: 4 Bed / 3 Bath)
Sqft: 2,200 (est. total; Duplex 1,400 + ADU 800) | Lot: 6,000 (est.) | Year Built: 1920s
Occupancy: Vacant
ARV: $273,882
Est. Rent (3 Units): $3,450/mo ($1,150/unit + utilities) | Est. Rent (4 Units): $4,600/mo
Price/Sqft (ARV): $124/sqft
Rehab Estimate: $60,000–$80,000 (heavy gut rehab for duplex; $10K–$15K additional for garage/ADU expansion; rental-grade, min scope for cap optimization)
**Rehab Scope (Rental-Grade Finish, Min Scope for Max Cap)
Full trash-out + deep cleaning (extreme debris/clutter in all rooms, garage, ADU—piles of drywall, furniture, junk; est. 5-7 days with dumpsters): $5,000–$7,000
Drywall/ceiling repairs (major holes, sagging/vandalized ceilings, exposed studs throughout duplex/ADU; full rehang/insulation): $15,000–$20,000
Paint interior/exterior (peeling/graffiti-covered walls, faded white siding on house/garage—neutral rental tones): $4,000–$5,000
Flooring updates (damaged subfloors, worn tile/carpet remnants; full LVP install in high-traffic areas): $6,000–$8,000
Rental-grade kitchen/bath updates (stripped cabinets/fixtures in duplex units/ADU; new laminate counters, basic appliances, vanities, tile surrounds): $12,000–$15,000
Electrical/plumbing/HVAC (rewiring exposed junctions, check forced air systems; full hookups in garage for conversion): $8,000–$10,000
Roof/exterior/landscaping (aged shingles on house/garage, porch repairs, yard cleanup—overgrown with debris): $5,000–$7,000
ADU/Garage Expansion (framing for bottom unit or 2-story build; add egress, utilities already hooked—min scope for quick conversion): $5,000–$8,000
Safety/code compliance (smoke detectors, egress windows, stairs/handrails): $2,000–$3,000
MLS Flip-Ready Add-Ons (+$15K–$20K): Premium quartz, hardwood LVP, updated lighting, staging for max resale.
Visual notes from photos: Classic 1920s duplex with attached garage/ADU—exterior white clapboard with covered porch, structurally sound but weathered siding/porch steps; interiors heavily vandalized/gutted (graffiti on walls "MICS," holes punched through drywall/ceilings, exposed wiring/plumbing, water stains in baths/kitchens, stripped to studs in bedrooms/living areas, heavy debris in ADU/garage with plywood floors; stairs intact but damaged; basement rough; overall "poor" condition—focus on demo/structural fixes first, then cosmetics for multi-unit rental potential.
*Why This Deal Works for Investors
** High value-add: Current duplex + ADU setup; expand garage to 4 units for 30%+ rent boost ($4,600/mo potential) at min rehab scope
** Cash-flowing post-rehab in stable Muncie rental market (low 5% vacancy); Section 8-friendly for 2/1 units
** Massive equity spread: $178K+ at ARV after low all-in ($110K–$150K)—35%+ cap on 4-unit stabilized with $50K–$70K entry
** Full utility hookups in garage = easy, low-cost conversion (confirm zoning for additional units)
** Residential zoning supports multi-family; clean title, no major structural red flags (no roof sags/foundation cracks visible)
** Off-market gem near Ball State with 7% YoY comp growth—upside in student/family demand
** Phased rehab possible (duplex first, ADU second); absentee owner potential—fits buy-box for high-cap rentals/flips
