1568 Shehy Street

This home would make a great addition to an investor’s portfolio and could also be a good opportunity for a first-time investor, as the work needed is not extensive and it could be rent-ready fairly quickly. Some of the important updates are already in place, including a newer furnace and hot water tank, mostly vinyl windows, wood paneling in very good condition, and new vinyl flooring in the living room, kitchen and upstairs hallway. The kitchen cabinetry could be resurfaced, and the solid basement with glass block windows and a shower is another nice feature. Solid construction is apparent both inside and out. Other nice features include a good-sized covered front porch, covered back porch, fully fenced yard, and detached two-car garage with a workshop area. Located close to downtown Youngstown, YSU and major highways, the location offers convenience for potential tenants or an affordable option for someone looking to make it their own home. The property was previously Section 8 approved for a long-term tenant at $850 per month and passed inspection, which provides a helpful indication of its prior rental potential. With some updating and finishing touches, this home has the potential to become a strong rental property or affordable place to call home!
