About 85-25 56th Avenue
Discover a premier investment or ultimate live-with-income residence in the heart of Elmhurst, Queens. Sited on a 25x100 lot, this detached multi-family property will be delivered 100% vacant at closing, allowing you to set premium market rents from day one. The building generates a proven gross annual rental income of $102,000, representing a solid 5.07% Capitalization Rate in a completely free-market, non-rent-stabilized environment.
The property underwent a high-end architectural gut renovation in 2008, fully replacing all underlying infrastructure—including modernized electrical wiring, updated plumbing networks, and rich hardwood floors. Fully separate utility meters for the first and second floors drastically minimize landlord oversight and protect operating margins.
