About This Property
Live in one side, rent the other -- and start building wealth from day one! This solid brick duplex in Central El Paso is just minutes from the medical district (Sierra, Las Palmas, Providence), making it ideal for steady long-term or short-term rental income. Each unit features 2 bedrooms / 1 full bath, separate utilities, and private entrances. One side is vacant and move-in ready, while the other is tenant-occupied month-to-month with consistent rental history -- perfect setup for a first-time investor or someone looking to 'house hack' their way to financial freedom. Live affordably, earn passive income, and own a rare duplex in prime 79902 where opportunities like this are hard to find.
