Property Description
This legal-brick four-unit building in South Shore offers a clear path for growth and long-term value. The property includes two large three-bedroom units and two two-bedroom units, providing a versatile layout for future tenants, with additional upside in finishing the attic and basement into units. Market rents in the area run $1,700-$1,900/month for 3-beds and $1,250-$1,600/month for 2-beds. CHA voucher rates are $1,630 for 3-beds and $1,270 for 2-beds. South Shore has real momentum. The Obama Presidential Center, 3 miles away, opens in June 2026 and is already pulling attention and investment into the corridor. The proposed Bears stadium and entertainment district is 6.5 miles out, another longer-term tailwind for the South Side. Fantastic bones, great unit mix, and a neighborhood that's moving. This is a home run for the right buyer.

Explore South Chicago
In a community that once buzzed with the heavy production of US Steel (one of the country's major steel manufacturers), South Chicago is a neighborhood rich in history centered about industry and organized labor. Today, these former industrial areas near Lake Michigan are some of the last few fleeting frontiers for development in the city. Acres of land along South Chicago's lakefront have not yet been built up — begging the interest of commercial and residential developers who continue to push south in search of prime real estate property. The neighborhood is bordered to the west by the Chicago Skyway, providing the region with good transportation. Both public schools and private academies dot the area, affording families their choice of scholastic options.
