845034 MLS ⋅ 4,952 SqFt. ⋅ Tariq Suboh
Six-unit multifamily property in Chesterton, built in 1999 and masonry-framed over two stories: four two-bedroom, one-bath units and two one-bedroom, one-bath units across 4,952 SF, averaging 825 SF per unit on a 0.27-acre parcel with 16 off-street parking spaces. Address range 1217 to 1227 W Porter Ave. Unit finish is unusually strong for the price point. Every unit carries its own forced-air furnace, central air conditioning and water heater, and the county record card values in-unit fireplaces at 30,200 dollars. Tenants pay their own gas, electric and in-unit water, leaving ownership responsible only for common-area electric, water and sewer, trash and grounds. That structure holds the current expense load to 36.8 percent of collected income and produces in-place NOI of 52,281 dollars, a going-in cap rate of 6.02 percent at the offering price. The value-add case is the rent roll. In-place rents average 1,158 dollars per unit against ownership pro forma of 1,528, roughly 32 percent of embedded upside, with two units already on month-to-month terms and a third rolling in January 2027. Marked to those levels the property produces pro forma NOI of 69,515 dollars, a cap rate of 8.00 percent at the offering price, with no change to the physical plant. Chesterton sits inside the Duneland School Corporation, minutes from I-94, US-20 and the Dune Park South Shore station, and adjacent to Indiana Dunes National Park.
