Investor alert! Immediate cash flow potential, just minutes from Western Carolina University. Affordable two-bedroom, one-bath rental opportunity with a proven rental history and strong demand from students, and residents. With a proven rental history already in place, this property is well-positioned to continue generating income from day one. The home features a durable metal roof approximately eight years old and a mini-split system installed in 2022, providing efficient heating and cooling while helping reduce future maintenance expenses. Strong rental demand, convenient location near campus, and local amenities make it an appealing option for long-term tenants.
