Investment Overview
Promenade Apartments is a 50-unit community located on Noble Road in Cleveland Heights, Ohio. The property features an attractive, balanced unit mix of 25 one-bedroom and 25 two-bedroom suites, delivering broad tenant appeal and strong rental upside.
Due to recent under-management, the asset has been allowed to fall behind market standards and is now available well below replacement cost on an “as-is” basis. This creates an exceptional opportunity for a new owner to stabilize operations, implement professional leasing and management, rapidly lease up the property, and capture strong cash-on-cash returns along with immediate equity appreciation.
