Elm Street Apartments
Multifamily | 12 Units
Marketing description
Northeast Private Client Group is pleased to exclusively present the opportunity to acquire 6 Elm Street, a 12-unit value-add multifamily investment located in Norwalk, Connecticut — one of Fairfield County's most active and historically resilient rental markets. The offering comprises three residential buildings totaling 12 apartments across 12,085 rentable square feet on a 0.5-acre lot, now operating as an all-residential property following the recent conversion of two former commercial-zoned units to legal residential apartments.
Built in 1967 and extensively improved through a comprehensive capital program, 6 Elm Street has been substantially de-risked for incoming ownership. Completed capital expenditures include five fully renovated apartments; the conversion of two commercial-zoned units to legal residential apartments; a new parking lot, storm drains, siding, flashing, and vinyl windows; new HVAC units, ductwork, and piping along with a dedicated owner's electric meter in the rear building; a new furnace and commercial hot water heater in the middle building; full brick repointing across the property; new basement sump pumps; and partial gutter replacement. With the major capital items already addressed, a new owner can focus on lighter cosmetic and curb-appeal improvements — a lower-cost, lower-risk path to driving rents and unlocking the property's remaining upside.
The property is defined by its large, family-oriented floor plans — 10 of the 12 units are two-, three-, or four-bedroom layouts, a configuration that is increasingly scarce in the submarket and commands premium rents and longer tenancies. In-unit washers and dryers are installed in all renovated units plus the two rear-building apartments, and both rear-building apartments feature central air conditioning. Utility structures vary by building: the six front-building units are individually metered with fully tenant-paid electric heat, hot water, and cooking; the four middle-building units are tenant-paid electric with landlord-provided gas heat and hot water; and the two rear-building units are individually metered and fully tenant-paid.
Located in Norwalk, a core Fairfield County rental market with a long track record of high occupancy, the property benefits from strong, consistent tenant demand and the area's broader economic momentum. Residents enjoy convenient access to Metro-North's New Haven Line, with direct service to New York City's Grand Central Station, as well as I-95 and Route 7, connecting them to the region's major employment centers and lifestyle amenities.
6 Elm Street represents a rare opportunity to acquire a recently improved, large-unit asset in an established Fairfield County market. The property is offered on a subject-to-offer basis.
A new owner stands to benefit from meaningful embedded upside. In-place rents currently sit roughly $54,000 below market, and a disciplined mark-to-market and revenue-management strategy — executed through natural lease turnover with minimal remaining capital expenditure — is projected to grow net operating income from approximately $216,000 to $265,000, a gain of roughly 23%.
Investment highlights
- Five renovated apartments plus new parking lot, siding, vinyl windows, HVAC, furnace, commercial hot water heater, brick repointing, storm drains, and more — major capex already behind the asset.
- Conversion of two commercial-zoned units to legal residential apartments expands the income base.
- 10 of 12 units are 2BR, 3BR, or 4BR layouts — an increasingly scarce configuration that drives premium rents and tenant retention.
- Washer and dryer in all renovated units plus both rear-building apartments.
- Six front-building units carry fully tenant-paid electric heat, hot water, and cooking, limiting owner expense exposure.
- Approximately $54,000 in below-market rents (~15%); average in-place rent of $2,234 versus $2,613 pro forma.
- ~23% NOI growth (from ~$216,000 to ~$265,000) achievable through lease turnover with minimal remaining capital expenditure.
- Norwalk's established, high-demand rental market with a history of strong occupancy and Metro-North access to Manhattan.
