#2. The Alice Bundle

🏘️ Mini-Portfolio Play – Alice Ave, Central, & Dearborn
6 properties | $645K total buy-in | Multiple exit strategies

This is a rare chance to pick up 5 single family homes + 1 duplex with upside across the board. A mix of vacant units, month-to-month tenants, and easy turns gives you options:

  • Flip everything for ~$1.1M resale

  • BRRRR and hold for cash flow + long-term equity

  • Blend the two for max return

💡 Example Plays:

  • Start with a flip on Dearborn (ARV ~$160K)

  • Use those proceeds to turn Alice Ave properties

  • BRRRR the Central duplex for ~$325K valuation

  • Keep strong-paying tenants in place where it makes sense

Whether you’re looking for a big value-add win, long-term hold, or a hybrid approach — this small bundle gives you flexibility and scale in one shot.
