Description

614 E Centre and 618 E Centre ARE RENTAL PROPERTIES AND OCCUPIED. 614 E Centre rents for $650/month and 618 E Centre rents for $1000/ month. BUY BOTH OF THESE PROPERTIES AND CASH FLOW. The City of Portage has targeted Centre Ave as an area of growth. In particular banks, doctors, attorneys and other commercial office buildings are emphasized. Here are two properties 614 and 618 E Centre side by side equaling 165 feet of frontage on the south side of East Centre. Both properties have existing homes but the land is flat so very little excavating will be required. Now is the time to buy these properties because financing and prices are unlikely to ever be this low again. BUY NOW AND CASH FLOW! A $1000 BONUS TO THE AGENT THAT BRINGS A VALID BUYER!
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "Everything in the town of portage is easily navigable which makes a move here much easier. Portage is a great town for families as well; with good schools, lots of nature trail parks used for hiking, lots of different family oriented playground parks, a YMCA with great programs available, etc.... the list goes on! It is a wonderful little midwest town."
