Green Bridge Real Estate is pleased to present the 23-unit Superior Glen Apartments located at 14036 Superior Road, East Cleveland, Ohio 44118. This approximately 27,908 square feet, all-brick building was constructed in 1923 and spans four stories on a 0.24-acre parcel. The complex consists of 10 two-bedroom/ one-bath units and 13 one-bedroom/ one-bath units. Some suites have dining areas that allow for bedroom conversions with minimal costs allowing for a significant increase in gross rents.
The Superior Glen Apartments are currently 73% occupied (17/23). Recent capital improvements include refreshed boiler and components, a new patchwork of roofing, parapet wall repair, new paint, flooring, and bathrooms in 80% of the units. 56% of the gross income is from subsidy-based tenants, which provides a stable, consistent tenant base with “guaranteed” rent payments. A large on-site manager suite (#23) could be converted to a rental office or provide discounted living to an on-site manager. Currently, three units are down and require various renovations to bring back to livable standards. Estimates for these unit renovation costs could be $80k to $100,000; please use your own estimates.
The Superior Glen Apartments are currently third party managed. The existing Laundry Room with 6+ existing hookups could provide additional income with minimal cost. The landlord has been paying for heat, trash, water, and sewer. The projected net annual operating income at 90% occupancy at market rents (with real estate tax adjustment and 8% management fee) is $121,965 or a 12.85% capitalization rate at the asking price of $949,000 ($41,260 per unit). The current NOI at 70% occupancy is $43,945 (4.63% cap). There is a significant opportunity to increase income by leasing more units in conjunction with the Subsidy Voucher Program, converting dining areas to additional bedrooms, and providing a laundry facility.
