Property Overview:

1980 2nd Avenue represents a compelling long-term multifamily investment opportunity in the rapidly evolving East Harlem submarket. Featuring 17 units across a 5-story mid-rise, this rent-controlled asset offers stability, upside potential through gradual turnover, and a rare chance to own a building with deeply rooted tenancy in one of Manhattan’s last remaining affordable housing strongholds.

Investment Highlights:

Affordable Housing Stability: All 17 units are rent-controlled, ensuring consistent occupancy with predictable long-term revenue.

Prime Corner Location: Situated at the intersection of 2nd Avenue and East 102nd Street, with strong visibility and easy access to public transportation.

Value-Add Potential: Though currently restricted under rent control, turnover of units over time allows for potential rent increases and repositioning.

Expanding Neighborhood Growth: East Harlem continues to see investment in infrastructure, residential development, and retail expansion — including the nearby 2nd Avenue Subway extension and Columbia University projects.

Rare Ownership Opportunity: Properties with this tenant profile and pricing structure seldom come to market, making this a unique buy-and-hold opportunity for investors focused on stable yield and long-term capital preservation.
