Why It's Interesting

East Liberty has completed its transformation — Google's Pittsburgh HQ is six blocks away, the Target and Whole Foods opened in 2015, and rental demand is now institutional. This Craftsman bungalow has been vacant since 2021 following a bank repossession; the city inspection report shows no structural deficiencies, just deferred maintenance (HVAC, kitchen, baths). Permitted as-of-right for a duplex conversion under Pittsburgh's zoning overlay. A legal two-unit in this submarket rents for $2,800–3,200/month combined. At $35k acquisition this is a buy-and-hold no-brainer for anyone with rehab crews.
